Killermont Polo Club is hidden away on the Maryhill Road in a former polo clubhouse, attracting much of is custom through recommendations and word of mouth, rather than passing trade. The main dining area is divided into a conservatory/clubhouse area and a more formal room decorated in the style of a hotel, with wood paneling, plenty of tartan and a polo theme in the decor. The restaurant aims to recreate the dishes the Maharaja of Jaipur served to visiting teams when his team dominated the game in the Twenties and Thirties, while the Western dishes, for example sirloin steak, are tagged as being ‘for home games’. In addition to more familiar tandoori dishes, there are dum pukht dishes, a style of cooking mixing the influence of Samarkand with heady Indian spices. Starters include butterfly king prawns or roasted chunks of salmon, marinated in ginger, fennel, honey and dill. All dum pukht mains are served with rice, vegetables and salad and include the Murgh Wajid Ali, where chicken is stuffed with pomegranate, mint and cheese, served in an orange and saffron sauce.
- High point: Authentic cuisine with an established reputation
- Low point: Not quite so authentic desserts
