OrderThe full tasting menu; the langoustine and Perthshire venison courses are the reason to book.
TipBook the earlier weekday sittings, they release before the Friday and Saturday slots that vanish first each month.
Unalome by Graeme Cheevers is Glasgow's other Michelin star, a polished Finnieston dining room where Cheevers plates precise modern European tasting menus.
OrderThe signature tasting menu; the seafood courses show off Cheevers' Japanese-influenced precision.
TipLunch service is easier to book than dinner and runs the same kitchen for a lower spend.
Brett is a Michelin-listed modern European room on Great Western Road, Glasgow, where a compact kitchen sends out a seasonal chef's menu worth the lead time.
OrderThe Chef's Menu at £98; it is the fullest expression of what the kitchen is doing that week.
TipThe small dining room and terrace book out fast, so aim for a midweek dinner and confirm dietary needs when you reserve.
Brian Maule at Chardon d'Or is a grand City Centre room where the ex-Le Gavroche chef cooks classic French technique on Scottish produce, Glasgow fine dining.
OrderThe set lunch menu is the smart value order, three courses of the same refined French cooking.
