“Flavour is a big thing for us and everything we do is authentic, homemade and made from scratch so we believe this is going be a local favourite. Fusing Scottish and Indian food is something I've done previously over the last three decades but at Singh Street we're taking it to a new level.

“We've had a lot of people knocking the door and popping in to see when we are opening which has been brilliant, just chatting to the locals and seeing how excited they are for us to be open gives us a joy. And I’m sure that once they taste our food, they will be very happy.”
