The Silver Buddha

The Silver Buddha on Lochinvar Road is a Chinese restaurant and takeaway in the Kildrum area of Cumbernauld, serving one of the new town's established residential neighbourhoods. The Lochinvar Road address puts it in the eastern residential districts away from the controversial town centre, in a section of Cumbernauld built in the first phases of new town development in the late 1950s and 1960s. Chinese restaurants in Cumbernauld's residential areas provide an alternative to the takeaway operations concentrated closer to the town centre, and The Silver Buddha has served the Kildrum area as a local Chinese option for many years. The kitchen produces a Cantonese-style menu for the surrounding G67 4AR residential catchment, covering collection and delivery for the large housing estates that define this part of the new town.
