xEDGE DAY WAGAMAMA DATE NIGHT REVIEWx

Hola amigos,

I'm sorry that this isn't a published post ON Edge Day but may I just say a belated Happy National Edge Day to all of my Straight Edge friends! I hope you all had a fantastic day because me and my mrs certainly had a ball. We were too busy having lots of fun eating nice food, watching Have Heart's last show, listening to Project X and generally having a great time that I totally forgot to post this Edge Day Special! Again, sorry! Keep your smiles on your faces all Edge Day Weekend!

I'm a bit of a grubber. I love my food. I love going out to nice, fancy places and getting a meal. I'd heard great words about but hadn't ever been to Wagamama before today! What an intriguing night it was. 

The restaurant has a very sleek, clean look to it's cornered away horizontal sign on West George Street in Glasgow City Centre. When you enter, you are greeted by top friendly staff who welcome you with open arms and lovely smiles. The manners of the staff are of high standard and their staff-customer conversation is very much on point. This stays consistent throughout the night and Wagamama certainly do not let the side down. Paulina served me and my beautiful partner and her level of service was exceptional. We could not have been more delighted. 

As a rookie, I obviously had absolutely no clue what to order, how to order and so on. Thankfully, with both the help of Abbey and Paulina, I managed to successfully read the menu and make the best choice. We ordered an iced coffee, a glass bottle of Coca-Cola and two Chicken Katsu Curries, mines with extra sauce. The drinks were brought out almost instantly and the food followed on in under 10 or so minutes which we couldn't have been more pleased about as both of our tummies were going like the clappers.

 The food was piping hot and looked elegant. It was served beautifully. The sticky white rice was placed on top, molded perfectly. The rich curry sauce drizzled down the top and the sides. The chicken breast was deep-fried in panko breadcrumbs. I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect or how it would taste but it did not disappoint me. It was fantastic. The whole dish was out of this world. We were given a side of dressed mixed leaves and red pickles along with our curries which was also delightful.

Plates were scurried away, dessert menus were given and before you know it, we had two sweet new plates sitting waiting to be devoured in front of us. 

My partner had the real fruit cherry ice lolly. It was mouth watering to gloat at and 
even better to taste. The real cherry in the lolly was to die for and the ice lolly itself was scrumptious. I purchased the three cake selection and to compliment them I asked for vanilla pod ice cream. I chose the three cake selection because I am a bit greedy and can't decide on one thing ever so I feel the need to have everything. When it came to the cakes, this was the only suitable option for me. The three I got were passion fruit cheesecake, white chocolate ginger cheesecake and chocolate fudge cake. The passion fruit cheesecake was absolutely delightful and had a lovely tangy kick to it. The passion fruit sauce left an after taste that was like tasting heaven. In terms of love and food, I don't think I had ever experienced what true love tasted like before I tried the white chocolate ginger cheesecake. Not only do I love white chocolate but I absolutely adore cheesecake and the ginger went down a treat. This was a genius combination. The toffee sauce drizzled over it was a gift from the gods. This was truly the highlight of my meal. A chocolate fudge cake is always a favourite too and so I was excited to try theirs. I was not let down, it was great! The chocolate was gooey, the cake was moist and I could really taste the fudge for a change. 

We finished the evening with free green tea which was also a first for me. I am so glad to have tried it because I think I have found a new favourite hot drink! The marble cup was also very cute. It came with no handles so you had to cup the glass. I really liked this because it was unique and it felt oriental and genuine.

Edge Day was an absolute treat and this meal made for the most perfect, pleasant day ever. I left feeling satisfied and stuffed, something I don't always feel from restaurants. I felt completely at home, relaxed and was in good hands for the duration of my night. The meal came to approximately £31 which for two people is totally justified for the meal and service we received. Wagamama went over and beyond the call of duty for us. I have no complaints whatsoever and I could not have been happier with my Wagamama experience. I will be back very soon! I'm so excited to return and try new and exciting dishes next time! I will also be glad to grab myself some free green tea again.
