Located at Parkside Yards, which is part of property developers Berekeley Group’s The Green Quarter, Ms Anand revealed theme of Brilliant Gastro. She said: “It’s the food I love to eat. Indian food with British twists; Indian favourites, and traditional British dishes, so there’s something delicious for everyone.”

We’ll have a wide array of new dishes that I’m excited for people to try, both new guests and those who already love our restaurant in Southall. Being born and raised in Southall, I’ve seen how The Green Quarter is creating amazing new spaces for the community while also supporting the existing neighbourhood, which aligns perfectly with my goals for this new venture.”
