Hit show This Morning have paid tribute to Glasgow curry king and creator of the tikka masala Mr Ali.
Ali Ahmed Aslam, the entrepreneur behind the city's Shish Mahal restaurant, sadly passed away aged 77 on December 19, with many paying their respects to the restaurant owner in recent days.
The city chef opened up his star Glasgow restaurant in 1964, following in the footsteps of his father, Noor Mohammed, who ran what many regard as Glasgow's first 'proper' Indian restaurant, the Green Gates. And now the ITV show has got involved in tributes to the late chef, with hosts of the ITV show, Josie Gibons, and Craig Doyle, sharing their surprise at the fact tikka masala was actually created in our city.
