00:00Are these all right here?

00:03Alright, we have Allure and this is our best of Glasgow.

00:06My favourite restaurant in Glasgow is an Italian up near Turncross.

00:14It's called Don Cazzone's Caprese and it's just a wee family run Italian

00:19and I love going there because I feel like you're stepping into their gaff.

00:22It's pure nice and the food's always amazing.

00:24I went to Margo the other week and I'm allergic to everything.

00:27Made a lot of accommodations for me so shout out to the staff at Margo.

00:30Class.

00:31I think my favourite's got to be Sylvan, Woodlands Road.

00:34Sylvan's class, yeah.

00:35We all went out together last year and it was probably some of the best food I've ever had.

00:38I wonder what my favourite pub is.

00:40I have a few favourite pubs.

00:42The first pub I ever drank in in the town was McCool's and I've been drinking there ever since.

00:47So that has to be number one but also I love going down to the Barras and going to the Heel and Jesse.

00:51I think that's a lovely pub, great on a Sunday afternoon.

00:54I just love pubs.

00:55Anywhere with decent gins and a good pint.

00:57McCool's.

00:59You're the coffee man.

01:00I'm well trained on this.

01:02Definitely Zenner.

01:02Zenner, Daily.

01:04Daily.

01:05Yeah, yeah.

01:05Dentist in coffee shops.

01:06Yeah.

01:07Yeah.

01:07Run Supreme.

01:08That's it.

01:08Baralands?

01:09Aye.

01:10Yeah, I like Baralands.

01:11I'm always excited going there.

01:12Yeah, it's hard to be.

01:13It's just got this energy with it.

01:15I can't really like describe it.

01:16Yeah, I don't think you're ever going to Baralands and not going to see one of maybe your favourite bands.

01:21Can't bottle it, it's incredible.

01:22My favourite venue that I've ever been to actually.

01:24I think my favourite, I've always stared at it, it's the pipe centre, the pipe factory.

01:29Yeah, that's cool.

01:30On Bain Street.

01:31I used to work in St Luke's and I'd always stare out into that building.

01:34And there was always two girls sat on the balcony just basking in the sun.

01:39And I was just hoping one day that would be me.

01:42I'd love that building so much.

01:43There's some really cool history to that building as well actually.

01:45Yeah, I mean they were in and they found all the great pipes and they were shutting it down.

01:48It's pretty cool.

01:49Finding them all.

01:49It was class.

01:50We found our music video on there as well.

01:51We did?

01:52Would you agree?

01:53I would have to agree.

01:55I honestly can't think of any other buildings.

01:57Maybe Selick Park?

02:00For me it's anywhere in the East End.

02:02Like if you're going through the Gallagate, Trongate, through and through the Barras.

02:06I was brought up in Bailstone.

02:08I love being in and around the East End of Glasgow.

02:11For me it just holds such a special place in my heart.

02:13And you know it always makes me think of going in with my parents, my grandparents.

02:18And it's the best.

02:19It's anywhere in the East End for me.

02:20The Era.

02:22Good lads.

02:23The Era.

02:24Sinclair.

02:25Sinclair.

02:26Dan.

02:26Yeah, Wee Dan.

02:27He's a great producer.

02:28He's spelt D4N.

02:30Yeah.

02:30Gaia.

02:31Amazing Snakeheads.

02:32Yeah, Amazing Snakeheads.

02:33Glas Vegas.

02:34Primal Scream.

02:35Yeah, Glasgow hero.

02:37Billy Conley for me.

02:39But I feel like everyone's going to say Billy Conley aren't they?

02:42Did I pick me a Glasgow one?

02:43James McAvoy's a bit of a legend.

02:44I feel like we just came off tour with Primal Scream and we got to meet Bobby Gillespie

02:48and actually got to chat a fair bit to him.

02:50I think he solidified himself from the icon status in my eyes of how sound he was

02:55and how much he really made time for us, which you don't always get when you're on tour with big bands.
