The Times
Chitra Ramaswamy was thrilled by a “throughly modern Pakistani lunch” from sisters Fariya and Saha Sharif at this canteen named after their grandmother at Civic House in Speirs Wharf – the “beating heart of Glasgow’s contemporary cultural scene”, close to Glasgow School of Art, the Royal Conservatoire, the National Theatre of Scotland and Scottish Opera, all of which ramp up “the coolness quotient of Parveen’s clientel”.
The sisters’ ethos is “to cook and serve one meal a day that everyone can eat” – no dish costs more than a tenner, with dishes such as a “spot-on” North Indian masoor dal .
The sisters also run Nights at Parveen’s when they serve kebabs accompanied by south Asian DJ sets and monthly dinner clubs where four-course meals costs £30 a head.
