Our restaurant in Glasgow's West End is roughly 80 miles from our hotel in Tighnabruaich; but, gastronomically speaking, they could hardly be closer to each other. All the delectable fresh seafood as well as most of the delicious meat and game cooked by Claire McKie and her team has come straight from our trusted suppliers in the Kyles of Bute. (And how many big city restaurants can say they're on first name terms with the people who catch their langoustines or stalk their venison?)

If you'll forgive us the terrible pun, it's a recipe for success. Within six months of opening, we were voted Best New Restaurant 2005 in the Scottish Chef Awards. And, ever since, discriminating Glasgow gourmets have been voting with their feet - by heading straight for An Lochan in Broomhill. Go on, check out our menu - and give your eyeballs a preview of what we have in store for your tastebuds. Or, better still, book a table right now.
