A CHEF is launching a “taste of Hong Kong’s frills-free street food” in Glasgow.
Salt & Chilli Oriental is Cantonese street food "reimagined, remastered, and given a playful twist", said Jimmy Lee.
He has announced a new pop-up on Dumbarton Road that will serve Chinese classics alongside fusion concoctions, “mixing conventional Hong Kong street food with a strong dose of modern Glasgow attitude”.
Spearheaded by celebrity chef Mr Lee and his team from award-winning Lychee Oriental, Salt & Chilli Oriental will open in the former Ninja Turtles Pizzeria site at 911 Dumbarton Road, currently undergoing a makeover, in two weeks.

The menu will include tangy peking ribs and chicken satay with spicy dip to bao filled katsu chicken and pulled aromatic duck as well as the signature “Salt & Chilli menu” with options of chicken, king prawn, crab, calamari or tofu salt & chilli.
Mr Lee said: “Salt & Chilli Oriental offers a small range of innovative, broadly Chinese-inspired dishes to Glasgow's West End. If you’re jonesing for some fast Asian food, our menu is packed with must-have items and is an exciting new addition to the West End's rich and diverse culinary scene.”
Customers will be able to order for delivery or collection from Salt & Chilli Oriental's pop-up home from Thursday, March 25.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
