Bukharah Healthy Indian Cuisine

Bukharah operates from within the Lorne Hotel at the quieter west end of Sauchiehall Street, where the restaurant strip gives way to the Park district's Victorian crescents. The kitchen won both Restaurant of the Year and Chef of the Year at the 2010 Scottish Curry Awards — recognition that the cooking here aims higher than the average hotel Indian. The self-described philosophy is healthy Indian cuisine: dishes are made without unnecessary fats, using whole spices and herbs drawn from different regional traditions across the subcontinent. The menu shifts across North and South Indian registers, and the TripAdvisor rating of 4.5 across more than 900 reviews suggests it has maintained that standard over time. The hotel setting provides parking and a degree of comfort that street-level takeaways cannot match.
