THREE Sisters Bake serve fresh, colourful local food bursting with flavour. Already established on the periphery of the city, with modern country tearooms at Quarrier’s Village and Killearn, Gillian, Nichola and Linsey Reith brought a new maverick offshoot to Great Western Road when Cake Bar opened in a blaze of colour over the summer. Currently serving up a cavalcade of sweet treats at Elfingrove, they launched a new range of baking kits this week featuring their most-requested recipes. You’ll find a step-by-step guide plus key ingredients to help you create empire biscuits, salted caramel brownies and carrot cake in your own kitchen. There’s also a cookie lolly starter baking kit for kids.
SOCIAL Bite on St Vincent Street is a cafe that’s part of a Scottish movement to end homelessness, providing free food and drinks to those who need it in the city. Their annual campaign asks for £5 donations to buy a meal for a homeless person this Christmas or to buy a gift for kids and families affected by homelessness. You can support the fundraiser at itison. com. Last year over 70,000 meals and nearly 40,000 Christmas gifts were donated through the campaign raising £566,830.
AN annual tradition at the Sub Club since 2009, Let Your Elf Go! features an “anything goes” music policy, a festive atmosphere and fundraising for local charities. It’s a £5 minimum donation, with Sensu, Anna Gram, Magic City Glasgow and Le Freak & Friends on the decks.
