Introduction BRINGING GLASGOW’S FAVOURITE RESTAURANT DISHES HOME taste of Glasgow is not only about providing an exciting collection of the city’s best recipes, it’s about supporting Children 1st as 100% of profits go straight to the charity.

Working closely with children, their families and communities Children 1st provides practical advice and safeguards to those facing difficult times. In times of need, the charity supports survivors of childhood abuse, neglect and other traumatic events, helping them to recover. The lifeline which Children 1st offers to children across Scotland is reliant on fundraising activities such as the launch of this unique recipe book. All of the recipes in this book have been kindly donated by the chefs around the city.

Pitch a business idea to the panel of Dragons, Right: receive £500 and turn it into £5,000 in 5 months. Children executive chef 1st’s Dragons’ Glen challenge started in 2012 and is now a core Campbell fundraising activity for the charity. Mickel We started our journey when we were introduced to our Dragon, Scottish Equity Partners’ Catherine Simpson and Below right: our EY mentor, Andrew Leck. Business gurus Catherine and the Dragons' Andrew helped us to refine our ideas before finally settling on a recipe book. Glen team TThe key to success was getting as many great restaurants as possible to contribute. This was a lengthy process and involved many late nights emailing and calling our favourite Glasgow restaurants. A real turning point for us was an introduction to executive chef Campbell Mickel who was quick to get behind our idea and filled us with confidence and enthusiasm that we would be a success. Campbell created a vibrant selection of dishes and really set the tone for our book. We would also like to extend a thank you to Eilidh Dunn from Made In Scotland and the G1 Group. Eilidh hand-picked some of the best independent food and drink producers from across Scotland and the G1 Group provided recipes from their top restaurants giving our book a quirky edge. In the end we have been so fortunate that so many restaurants were willing to support our cause! Undoubtedly there were a few mishaps along the way – who knew you needed photographs for a recipe book? Thankfully Professional Photographer, Peter Sandground, was a saving grace and donated two days of his time and expertise to the cause. Over the course of the two days we lined up photography slots with twelve different restaurants across greater Glasgow. Peter travelled from the city centre to Bearsden to Silverburn taking photos of everything from scones and soups to Brian Maule himself! We truly could not have created this book without Peter’s generosity. We now had recipes and photos but producing a quality book is no easy feat. Peter once again proved invaluable by introducing us to Renny Hutchison of Village Creative. Village Creative are award-winning creative designers who kindly agreed to take on our project. Renny perfectly captured our ideas and brought our book to life. We would like to extend our most sincere gratitude to Catherine, Andrew, Campbell, Eilidh, Peter and Renny as well as all of the restaurants who donated recipes for their contributions and support in this project. And finally, a huge thank you to our readers for your contribution to Children 1st. We hope you enjoy the finished product!
