Classy joint set to open doors
There is a new restaurant coming to East Kilbride.
The Ostentatious Fox is a new 40-seater eatery that promises “classy, sophisticated dining in a relaxed, informal and friendly environment”.
Behind the project is Michael Skilling, a local East Kilbride chef who has been involved in the food industry for just over 16 years.
Speaking to the News, Michael said: “We are a small 40-seater restaurant that we hope will make our guests experience the finest of food, drinks and exceptional service. A key to our ethos within the restaurant would be ‘No airs & graces please,’ a friendly, warm and welcoming environment where all our guests are every bit as important as the previous or next.
“Our approach will be to utilise classic formal service elements delivered in a relaxed and informal style.”
The food served at The Ostentatious Fox, which is located on St Bryde Street, will be seafood and grill – something that Michael hopes will bring in a whole range of customers.
He said: “Our food will focus on quality produce sourced using local suppliers, who also provide sustainable produce where possible.
“All our food will be fresh and produced on site using a variety of cooking technique – modern through to classics.
“We hope to throw in some exciting elements to some of our drinks and dishes too”
The restaurant currently does not have a confirmed opening date, but hopes to start serving up soon.
