With seating
around the edges of the room and candles flickering in windows there's a certain sense of
intimacy in stylish and very friendly Bar Soba. You can eat in the plush downstairs res-
taurant, or in the bar. The food is Asian fusion and the laksas go down a treat - followed
up of course by an irresistible chocolate brownie. Background beats are perfect for
chilling and it's a good stop in the heart of the shopping zone for lunch, when all dishes
are £8.
ASIAN FUSION
Mono£
(
www.monocafebar.com
;
12 Kings Ct, King St; mains £3-8; noon-9pm; )
Combining
vegetarian food with music, Mono is one of Glasgow's best vegetarian and vegan eateries.
Monorail is in the same premises, which means you can browse through an indie record
shop while waiting for your food to be prepared. The all-day bar menu serves classics
such as a breakfast fry-up, while the main menu has a touch of flair and a Mediterranean
influence. The lasagne is well worth ploughing through. Mono also makes a relaxing
place for a coffee or a beer.
