POSH DINING ANDREW FAIRLIE AT GLENEAGLES

Although Gordon Ramsay's arrival took most of the sting out of chef Andrew Fairlie's departure from One Devonshire Gardens. Glasgow rs smarting slightly. After all, Fairlre's ambition was to operate hrs own restaurant. Surely. that could have happened in Glasgow.

Well, perhaps not. The lure of Gleneagles. the famed hotel and golf course in Perthshrre, was too strong. Actually. One Devonshire and its new owners Residence International had

tabled an opportunity for Fairlie to do rust that: take oxer the restaurant pOrtron of the operation. But \\'I)|It“ he mulled ox er that offer. Gleneadles beckoned. He says hrs decision was rnstantaneous. 'Oleneagles has an international reputation second to none. Already l was positioning rms I at a different level Just In rimming there.‘

Let's face rt. Prices at the OH Devonshrr‘e were prohrbrtn e to: most or us and Andrew Farrlre at Gleneaiilt-s is; similarly beyond our budget range (955—8375 per person before WIHOII » except on a rare night of posh dining Out. Still, he remains a leading light (if posSrbly the leading beacon) in Scottish cuisine. Hrs home smoked lobster (delicate as only the shell is actually smoked) is Justly famous and I swear: I once saw a nomrnal vegetarian reconsrder' her largely herbivore dret after trying a bit of Farrlre's roast shin of veal.
