00:00Si Ferry, we're outside Grosso, which is very soon to be Glasgow's new Italian restaurant.

00:05I want to find out about your best at Glasgow.

00:08So, what's some of your favourite places to go for a pint in Glasgow?

00:12Favourite places to go for a pint would be definitely Ginty's in Ashton Lane.

00:17I like Max's in the town.

00:20Bad, obviously I'm in Bad quite a lot.

00:22I've just moved to the Barras area.

00:24Bad's right across the road to me.

00:25St Luke's, Michael's place is really good.

00:27So, just all this sort of mix at East End and a wee bit at the West End as well.

00:30What about if you are meeting us for a coffee?

00:32Where would we go?

00:33If we are meeting for a coffee, I am meeting you in Naked Soot on the West End.

00:37Or I do like Cotton Rake.

00:38The new Cotton Rake is very nice on Great Western Road.

00:42East End, you've got the Rumbling Tum.

00:45I mean, it's a proper coffee.

00:46It's an instant coffee, but again, another great atmosphere.

00:50And then also Outlier as well, Stephen's Place, which I'm in there quite a bit.

00:54Really like Outlier stuff.

00:55Do lovely coffee.

00:56And then also Zen are down the road doing amazing coffee.

00:59We've actually got an amazing coffee, Fowler Coffee it's called.

01:02So, if you're looking for coffee, Grosso's no just owner.

01:04I'm plugging myself and I should be plugging other people, but I'm going to do it.

01:07It's not just pizzas, pastas.

01:09If you're looking for coffees, cakes, we did a lot.

01:11What's your favourite area in Glasgow?

01:13Deniston by a country mile.

01:14Said it.

01:15First place that kind of hit me when I moved through to Dundee.

01:18Introduced to Deniston through where I worked, obviously, at Celtic Park and just fell in love.

01:21So, I had a real mix of people that I recognised for Dundee, real characters.

01:27And like I said, it was kind of ingrained into this area, what it meant to people.

01:30So, I've always loved Deniston.

01:32And then guys like Robert Snodgrass, who you meet through football, he's the type of Deniston

01:35guy that Alex Ray, they talk to guys, you know, just proper characters.

01:39And I think that's what you get through at Deniston.
