Blue Dog in Glasgow provided atmosphere, sophistication, a baby grand piano and Frank Sinatra playing. Even on a Tuesday night it felt like somewhere fantastic. In its own little world.
The service was excellent. After taking seats at the bar to better observe the ‘mixologist’ at work there was an instant rapport and friendliness. ‘What would you like?’, ‘Don’t be worried about the egg white, it’s just for body’, ‘If you don’t see anything you like then tell me what you do and I’ll mix you something’. You instantly feel at ease despite not knowing your way around the menu, something that I think shouldn’t be underestimated.
I opted for a Lady-Boy; doesn’t everyone? Thai Mekong Spirit expertly mixed with fresh root ginger, fresh lemon juice and squeezed apple juice and egg white. It was pretty stunning and easy to understand why it won a silver medal at the International Cocktail Challenge. Served in a jug over ice it is a wonderfully refreshing blend.
The menu is long and complex; these are proper grown up cocktails with style and finesse and flavour balance. The £6-10 price reflects this. What they aren’t are big glasses of brightly coloured sweet fruity drinks with a couple of shots of cheap vodka. If you want somewhere special then Blue Dog is a fab place to go. Bring your wallet, but relax and be lead on a journey of flavour. And if you really don’t fancy cocktails then the short but classy wine and fizz list should keep you happy.
