MODERN Scottish pub The Gate is hosting a ‘Tapas AFF’ (Scottish small plates) takeover and whisky masterclasses in the run-up to Burns Night next week. 

Collaborating with Glasgow-based pop-up kitchen, That’s Yer Dinner –  who have served their delicious Scottish small plates across to the likes of David Beckham, the popup chefs will completely takeover The Gate kitchen with a locally-sourced Scottish menu to celebrate our national bard.  

That’s Yer Dinner, the culinary brainchild of brothers Grant and Gordon Reekie – a former Scottish oyster shucking champion, have a mission to reinvigorate Scottish food. Looking to the past for inspiration while keeping their fingers firmly on the pulse. 

They will serve up dishes such as Kedgeree Scotch egg with vinegar peas, locally-caught Scottish crab, celeriac and apple on wholemeal bread, served with a mug of partan bree (Scottish crab soup), and sugar-sweet Barras-inspired doughnuts.

Alasdair Shaw, manager of The Gate said: 

“That’s Yer Dinner has created a brilliant reputation for delivering modern innovative Scottish dishes with a big emphasis on quality produce, so for us it was the perfect fit to celebrate Burns night.”

Tables are very limited, for reservations, please email contact@thegateglasgow.com to book your table. There will also be a limited number of walk ins available during the pop-up.
