A Glasgow restaurant has been crowned the 'best' in Scotland.

COSMO Authentic World Kitchen was awarded the Best Restaurant in Scotland accolade by The Golden Chopsticks Awards, co-founded by Gok Wan to recognise outstanding East and South East Asian cuisine.

The chain, which operates 22 sites across the UK, also received the Best Multi-Site venue and Best Restaurant in Northern Ireland awards.

The award ceremony was held in London on April 29.

With venues in Glasgow's Silverburn and St Enoch's Centre, the restaurant is known for 'elevating the buffet experience', offering visitors a choice of more than 150 dishes from six cuisines.

Their offering includes East and South East Asian flavours such as Teppanyaki style dishes cooked over flames, and a Chinese menu, providing a culinary journey across Asia.

The restaurant's chefs cook in front of guests on iron griddles or sear premium cuts of meat amid the fires.

Kan Koo, partner at COSMO, said: “We are delighted to have COSMO officially crowned Best Restaurant in Scotland by the prestigious Golden Chopsticks Awards.

"Standards were so high across all of the categories this year so we're really thrilled to be chosen by the public amongst some fierce competition.

"As a multi-cuisine restaurant, we strive to offer our guests the very best handpicked dishes from across Asia, so we're delighted to have our Teppanyaki and Chinese menus recognised in this way by these national awards. "
