An opening date has been announced for Glasgow's latest Indian restaurant Rickshaw and Co, which will arrive in the city next month.

Promising an 'exotic culinary adventure' in the city's west end, the team behind the exciting new 120 cover eatery and stylish café bar has also revealed the 'colourful cuisine' foodies can expect to find on its vibrant Indian and Bangladeshi menus.

Rickshaw and Co will open on Thursday, June 2 and will welcome diners from early until late, seven days a week.

Making the announcement today, owners say: "Bringing a world of spice and Bengali cafe culture, guests are invited to stay for a cup of chai or cocktail, sample their modern street food or enjoy sharing comforting dishes or a savoury snack as part of the intoxicating all-day menu at Rickshaw.

"There’s everything from mouthwatering small plates, fresh tandoori grills, biryanis, salad bowls, wraps, tiffin boxes and larger curries that cater for all dietary requirements, including vegan and vegetarian.

"Signature dishes on the menu include Pav Bhaji - a street food delicacy from Mumbai. It features homemade bread that’s baked in house, with a thick delicious vegetable curry to soak up the soft melt-in-your-mouth bread.

"From their tandoori oven, spice fans will adore their slow cooked charcoaled lamb chops with hot Kashmiri chillies. Paneer Tikka is another must-try. Indian cottage cheese is marinated in a house spice blend with cooling yoghurt and turmeric then charcoaled to lock in flavour.

"You’ll also find fragrant curries on the menu like their Goan King Prawn speciality. Bangladeshi coastal king prawns are marinated in a signature blend of spices with a mild coconut crema which complements both varieties of rice and bread.
