Silverburn's COSMO has undergone a half a million-pound refurbishment and is now celebrating its reopening by inviting NHS workers to dine for free this week.
The all-you-can-eat Glasgow restaurant will reopen on Monday (September 27) in Silverburn Shopping Centre after receiving a makeover designed by Robert Angell, who has previously created restaurants for The Savoy, Gordon Ramsay and Marcus Waring.
Anyone who has visited previously will notice that the 8,800 sq-ft restaurant now has a brand-new lighting system and Italian marble counters, with new leather booth seating, wall murals and dark oak shelving which section off areas for privacy.
The East meets West setting is also said to reflect the dishes served at the restaurant where diners can choose from a mammoth 55m of global cuisine including Chinese, Italian, Indian, Brazilian and Malaysian which will be cooked in front of them at eight live cooking stations.
And now in order to celebrate their refurbishment and fancy new look, the much-loved restaurant chain will be opening their doors this Thursday (September 23) to thank the NHS workers for their extraordinary efforts during the last 18 months of the Covid pandemic.

Having originally opened its doors to the public back in 2014, the gesture is said to underline COSMO’s commitment to the NHS.
During lockdown, its staff prepared 50 free hot meals a day for doctors and nurses in the critical care departments at Leverndale Hospital located on Crookston Road in the city.
COSMO spokesman Kan Koo said: “We have always offered a discount to NHS staff and we were proud to support our local hospital when staff were battling through extraordinary long shifts in exceptional situations.
“It seems only fitting that as we celebrate our new look and reopen our doors that we invite those key-workers who went above and beyond the call of duty every day.
“The restaurant is looking absolutely stunning and we can’t wait for the people of Glasgow to return for our freshly-cooked global cuisine in our elegant new setting.”
“We are incredibly proud of the new-look restaurant and now it is finished we can’t wait to show it off next week. The interior is much lighter and brighter and has a luxurious finish which will be the perfect venue for families, friends and groups.”
