Desi Curry Palace

Desi Curry Palace on Allison Street is the takeaway half of a small Govanhill institution — the sit-down counterpart, Darbar Grill, operates next door at number 140. The takeaway specialises in Pakistani street food: sheekh kebab, Sindhi biryani, karahi, and freshly baked naan. The kitchen opens at lunchtime and runs late into the night, with Friday and Saturday service the longest. Prices are among the keenest on the South Side, and the biryani in particular draws regulars who describe it as not needing gravy to stand on its own. A halal-certified operation with delivery through Uber Eats and the major platforms.
