A Youtuber got kicked out of one Glasgow’s most famous takeaways after taking to the streets to crown the city’s “worst-rated dish”.
Konstantin, known as Kon, has nearly 1.4 million subscribers on the platform and has previously worked with stars like the Sidemen and KSI.
Earlier this month he shared the video entitled “I Tried Glasgow’s WORST RATED Takeaways”.
The social media star and a friend headed out to order the dishes customers have complained about most in online reviews. The duo then said they would decide for themselves which of the city’s takeaways offered the worst rated food in a bid to find their “unlucky winner of Glasgow’s worst dish”.
The clip, which since being posted on June 3 has over 70k views, sees the pair head to some surprisingly well-known and popular spots, including Blue Lagoon and Chunky Chicken on Sauchiehall Street.
Giving each a fair pop with the meals, the pair offer some fair scores and only really criticise the service at a poorly-rated KFC (with an average 2.8 stars) over a misunderstanding to do with the water.
Heading to the Blue Lagoon at Central Station, they try the chips and new sausage éclair – which Kon says has TikTok viral potential – and describe the chips as “mid”, while the pair aren’t impressed by the deep-fried Mars Bar but that seems to be more to do with the concept than the dish itself.
They mainly complained about the pricing at the city centre fave in the end. In fact, across the board, Kon stated he was surprised that none of the restaurants they tried were anywhere near as bad as the impression given by some of the reviews they’d come across online.
Konstantin said: “I thought, oh yeah there’d be more like foods that are going to be gross, they’re going to be disappointing, but everything has just been like bang average.”

He may have spoken too soon, however, as the music video producer then went on to really dislike the pizza from a local Indian, which you can see in the video above.
After trying out food from a poorly-rated Chinese while sitting at a bus stop in Govan – which they were actually surprised by and gave a good review to – they headed to the now famous Best Kebab in the city centre.
Appearing to be closed at 4pm, they had to wait until night time to go back for their kebabs. However, after being stared down by who they believed was the owner, they end up in an altercation – and after they beat a hasty retreat, they gave it zero stars as they weren’t able to actually buy any food.
