On the chain gang

It's best to be under no illusions if you eat at Carluccio's.

The drop-down menu on the company website lists 56 branches of this chain in the UK, one in Ireland and five in Qatar, Kuwait and Dubai. Scotland is under-represented, with only one restaurant in Glasgow. Doubtless more will follow. It seems that Carluccio's has ambitions to become a ubiquitous brand. In London, it already is.
