El Perro Negro reveal new burger pop-up at east end bar

It’s often cited as one of the best burger joints in Glasgow.

But if you've yet to make it to Finnieston to taste El Perro Negro’s cult burgers - this is your chance to catch the meaty mavericks in the east end.

Before becoming a fixture on the Strip, El Perro Negro earned their stripes back in the day appearing at bars across the city for one-night-only takeovers.

And you can now mark a brand new date in your diary.

Continuing their series of successful monthly kitchen takeovers at the Gate, El Perro Negro will be firing up their grill and serving up an exclusive Smash & Grab menu from Thursday, 27th until Saturday, 29 February.

Mouthwatering new dishes on offer include Korean bulgogi and honey glazed wings,  Mexican black bean tacos and the star of the show being their dive bar double smash cheeseburger -  two smashed patties, melted cheese, onions, pickles and burger sauce from the award-winning team led by chef Nick Watkins.

The Gate will also be matching dishes with old school drinks made with a sustainable twist. Working with Scottish drinks company William Grants, The Gate has created an Old Fashioned and Daiquiri menu for the duration that uses their newly launched Discarded - a sweet vermouth infused with cascara and a banana peel rum.

Alasdair Shaw, manager of The Gate said: "The UK’s best burger is heading east! We’ve been keeping this latest kitchen takeover secret for a while and the menu is worth the wait. ”

Nick Watkins, founder of El Perro Negro said: “Looking forward to getting back into the East end where it all began for El Perro. We're keeping things simple but packing major flavours and can't wait to sample those drinks pairings after service.”

We'll see you there!
