Mount Cafe

Mount Cafe on Burnfield Road is a genuine hidden gem on the Glasgow South Side — a Nepalese and Indian restaurant that has built a devoted following through the quality of its cooking rather than its profile. The room is compact, reached by a flight of stairs, seating no more than twenty. The kitchen is run by Nepalese cooks and the menu reflects it: bhutuwa, a Nepalese-style lamb curry with garlic, ginger, green chilli and coriander, jeera lasooni with cumin and garlic, and chatpate bhuja — a traditional Nepalese snack of puffed rice and crunchy bombay mix with diced onion and coriander. The belayat.uk Nepali community directory lists it as a recommended restaurant for the Glasgow Nepalese diaspora. Closed Mondays; the kitchen opens from the afternoon into the later evening.
