LAST WORD | GLASGOW
“Nelson Mandela has a Glasgow street named after him and Billy Connolly has the
Freedom of the City, but I have a curry named after me! The Des McLean korma
can be found at the Nakodar Grill in Dennistoun. It’s a real Indian/Scottish place,
with unusual dishes such as haggis pakoras. Owner Johnny Kumar and family make
the best Indian food in Glasgow, which is why you’ll fi nd me here most weekends.”
McLean headlines the opening night of the Magners Glasgow International Comedy Festival on 17 March; glasgowcomedyfestival.com
