29's Oyster Bar

Cheese, connoisseurs will tell you, deserves to be recognised as a food group on its own.

Scots have come a long way since we chanted ‘Scottish cheddar, it’s oor kind o’ cheese,’ on a popular TV ad, and there is no shortage of aficionados now willing to wax lyrical about this finest of dairy products.

Well, join the queue, cheese-fanciers, for today’s Big Deal offering a refined cheese board for two, along with a bottle of wine in the elegant surroundings of No. 29 in the heart of Glasgow.
