Boh Cucina

Pop quiz — what is ‘Cicchetti’? Is it: A) A 90s dance craze? B) A cute baby parrot? C) The world’s tiniest country?

Trick question, as it’s actually none of the above. In fact, Cicchetti is the Venetian version of tapas, served in the watery city’s atmospheric wine bars.

And the good news is that you don’t need to hop into a gondola to try it. With this Big Deal, you can tuck into Cicchetti much closer to home, at Boh’ Cucina in Uddingston.

Best of all, fizz is thrown in too.

Sample Venetian small plates

Boh’ Cucina is a bright and airy Italian restaurant on Uddingston’s Main Street. With its exposed brick walls, pendant lighting and ceiling vine, it is a stylish place to enjoy Venetian cuisine.

Available Tuesday to Sunday until the 31st of March, this Big Deal is for two people to enjoy three gourmet small plate dishes to share, plus a nice chilled bottle of Prosecco.

Sample choices include salt and pepper calamari with saffron aioli, the wild mushroom ravioli with Prosecco, butter and sage sauce and the monkfish with panko breadcrumbs with chilli jam and rocket.

Since opening at the end of last year, Boh’ Cucina has earned itself an astonishing 5/5 overall TripAdvisor score. Here is a snippet of one review:
