FEBUARY 2011
25 BATH ST
GLASGOW

There was a time back in the eighties where every Scottish town boasted  a flash discotheque, each Friday night lassies with white mini skirts and corn beef legs would pile in hoping to secure a lovely bloke with a tight perm and a steady job. Chances are those palaces of virtue went by the name of RUMOURS or occasionally Reflections but nearly always Rumours. .

What do I know of this place? Whispers from the trade tell me that the guys behind this pristine Malaysian café were associated with Glasgow cult favourite and late night dining joint Asia style, a breakaway brigade, a lone chef who struck it lucky at the casino, a feuding cousin that set up in opposition, all irrelevant chitter  chatter, and those other Tid Bits of customer gossip, “ they do the best bubble drinks in Glasgow”, “there soft shell crabs are to  maim for”, “they do a remarkable lunch for £6.95”. Rumours turns out to be an appropriate name after all.
