A GLASGOW hotel is set to open a new restaurant.

Bo & Birdy at The Blythswood will open on May 15 under the guidance of Scotland’s first female five-star hotel executive head chef, Gillian Matthews.

Matthews said: “I’m delighted to welcome clients old and new to join myself and the team at the new Bo & Birdy restaurant. Our distinctive menu has been created to present the best of Scottish produce in what I believe will be a truly modern twist on traditional recipes.”

Murray Thomson, general manager of the Blythswood Square Hotel said: “As Glasgow’s only 5-star lifestyle hotel, we are thrilled to introduce Bo & Birdy to Glasgow’s thriving dining scene. With our award-winning spa, Square Eyes Cinema Club, designer guest rooms and famous penthouse, Bo & Birdy will become an essential destination for lovers of Scottish food and drinks.

“The glitz, glamour and 5-star service at Blythswood will remain.”
