Kevin Campbell and Toni Carbajosa have submitted plans to Glasgow City Council to take over a car park beside their Cranside Kitchen venue at the city’s Rotunda in Finnieston (pictured) and use a 200-capacity shipping container so that customers can visit whatever the weather. It will be in addition to the existing ‘tented structure’ which only has temporary consent and isn’t weather-proof.
Kevin will also open his new venture Katsu at 41 West Nile Street this month while plans to extend Bibimbap on the same street into the vacant shop next-door have been pushed back to spring next year.
Kevin told DRAM, “Katsu is a Japanese curry shop with 20 covers and it will have a big takeaway focus with all that is happening with COVID. We are going through panning and licensing for the Bibimbap extension to take it from 26-seater to 70 and will open in spring 2021.”
The Cranside Kitchen extension will have a ‘garden’ theme with small trees and shrubs helping to mark out spaces and walkways for social distancing. It will also boast Pergola structures and outdoor heaters.
