The Champion…

Dining out is a popular way of spending an evening. But finding a restaurant which combines attractive surroundings with good food and which doesn’t charge a fortune can pose a small problem.

Well, one thing fits the bill is The Ubiquitous Chip, which is situated in Ashton Lane, off Byres Road, on Glasgow’s West End.

Because passers-by could easily miss this inconspicuous spot, the owners have had to rely on word of mouth recommendations for their restaurant, and there are plenty of these.

Much frequented by staff at the nearby university and hospital, the Ubiquitous Chip has an off-beat, restful air. It is decorated with white stone walls, beamed ceiling and natural wood tables and chairs. Entry is by way of a charming covered courtyard.

The cuisine tends to be traditionally Scottish and the owners place the emphasis on fresh food cooked to order. Their Kipper pate has proved a popular starter and mouth watering main courses include Musselburgh pie (meat pie with mussels), loin of pork with sweet peppers, Inverness venison with rowan jelly and (at weekends only) fresh mussels stuffed with garlic, butter, parsley, and cheese. To follow there are such sweets as homemade Caledonian ice-cream with bannocks and carageen mould with oatmeal cream, a traditional dish made with seaweed brought specially from South Uist.

The Ubiquitous Chip, which is open from lunch and dinner every day except Sunday, also has a £1.85 three-course lunchtime menu. A good three course dinner is reckoned to cost under the £4.00 mark.

As yet, the restaurant doesn’t have a licence, but I was told, “We are awaiting confirmation of a table licence.” This will make little change to their present system of allowing patrons to bring in their own wine, but will mean that wines will be available for those who want them.

The restaurant can seat about 90 and there is also a room suitable for dinner parties of up to 40 people. This is already much in demand for retirement presentations, faculty dinners and gourmet evenings.
