A GLASGOW Indian restaurant has come up with the perfect hangover cure and palate cleanser for St Patrick’s Day.
The top chefs at Merchant City eaterie The Dhabba have concocted special green cocktail Aam Panna using a blend of spices and herbs indigenous to Northern India.
Owner Navdeep Basi reckons St Paddy’s day boozers might just benefit from the drink after a heavy weekend of drinking.
