When it comes to dining out, I am all about the new. New locations, new menus and the possibility of making new friends along the way (well, you know what those sharing tables are like). That\u2019s why I was thrilled to hear that the makers of \u2018The Fish Plaice\u2019 were back to create even more unique dining gastronomes, this time over at \u00a0Tontine Lane with a very special (and very tasty beer) Heverlee.<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"IMG_4907-0.jpg\"<\/a>I\u2019m a sucker for a pop up, the limited time frame only pushes me to get everything I can from it. When we were invited along to the launch all but a week ago, I couldn\u2019t believe I found something not just new, but completely new to me in my very own city. Since I was nothing short of a spring chicken when Douglas Gordon won a Turner Prize for his little slice of Hollywood in the heart of Glasgow, I was delighted that the once unused Tontine Lane and it\u2019s famous Empire sign has been transformed into an urban street food (and beer, can\u2019t forget the beer) heaven.<\/p>\n

Below this neon-lit\u00a0lane, a loading bay door transports you to Leuven for an authentic Belgian Cafe Bar experience. With a ridiculously tasty menu,\u00a0Heverlee at Tontine offers you the chance to experience the art of Belgian beer with a side of delicious fishy bar food \u2013 lobster mac and Moules Frites? I\u2019ll be taking you guys, with a Heverlee Witte beer on the side of course.\u00a0

\"IMG_4458.JPG\"<\/a>\"IMG_4885.JPG\"<\/a>\"IMG_4462.JPG\"<\/a>\"IMG_4897.JPG\"<\/a>Since the pop up first opened on the 17th of July, I have managed to make it down twice with two future visits already slotted in the diary over the next four days. I don\u2019t think any pop up has had this much of an impact on my diet. Eating fresh fish and drinking extremely delicious beer inside a white tiled industrial wonderland is exactly how I want to be spending all my spare time, thank you!<\/p>\n

Open for just another four days (the 2nd, although there are rumours flying it may extend the week) I couldn\u2019t recommend this little slice of urban beauty. From the crate flowerpots, street art, DJ\u2019s and projections, it\u2019s safe to say that this is the coolest place in Glasgow right now. Bar none. Don\u2019t miss out, head to Heverlee at the Tontine (entrance through Bell Street, just passed Brazen) and convince them that this pop up deserves to stay up passed the 2nd!
