A popular Glasgow Indian restaurant has joined forces with one of the Outer Hebrides’ finest seafood producers in a partnership that brings together heritage, friendship, and bold Scottish flavour.
From Wednesday 2 July, customers visiting the Namara Seafoods shop in Kallin, North Uist, will be able to purchase freshly made Mister Singh’s India curries, starting with the restaurant’s iconic chicken bhoona. The collaboration marks an expansion for both businesses, rooted in decades of personal connection and respect for quality food.
Satty Singh, whose family has run the Glasgow restaurant for generations, said: “For years we have enjoyed the company and friendship of many people from the Outer Hebrides who are regulars in Mister Singh’s restaurant.
“The family is delighted to work with Hector Stewart and everyone at Namara Seafoods and make available our curry in the Kallin shop. We’ll begin with a great favourite, chicken bhoona, but it’s our intention that other curries will soon be available in Kallin. We do hope that our many island friends enjoy the availability of fresh Mister Singh’s curries in their own community.”
The relationship between the Singh’s and the Hebrides dates back even further. “It’s not my family’s first link with Uist – in the 1960s my father and his later brother, Gordon Singh, went door-to-door selling clothes in Uist. Later this year, with Papa Singh, we’re looking forward to visiting Kallin and other villages in North and South Uist.”
Hector Stewart, managing director of Namara Seafoods, said: “We are delighted to be able to offer fresh curries from Mr Singh’s restaurant, in our shop. For me, a trip to Glasgow is never complete without a visit to Mister Singh’s. So, I’m personally pleased we have this arrangement with Satty Singh and his family. From this coming Wednesday (July 2nd) curries will be available at Kallin.”
With Mister Singh’s curries now available in the Outer Hebrides and a longstanding shared appreciation between the businesses, the partnership celebrates more than food, it reflects the history and community ties that connect Scotland’s urban and island traditions.
