A Glasgow restaurant has launched a limited-edition run of pink-tastic meals, in celebration of the new Barbie movie.

Di Maggio’s “Carbie” menu will be available between July 21 and 28, at its Royal Exchange Square and East Kilbride locations.

Patrons can commemorate the release of Greta Gerwig’s cinematic opus with bright pink waffles, a strawberry-laden dessert pizza, or a dazzling cotton candy milkshake.

The hotly-anticipated film sees Barbie leave the utopian Barbie Land after questioning her mortality, travelling to the real world with Ken.

The trailer for the film states: “If you love Barbie, this movie is for you. If you hate Barbie, this movie is for you.”

Nadine Carmichael, head of marketing at DRG, said: “It’s amazing to see that the Barbie film, and of course Oppenheimer, are bringing people back to the cinema – there’s a real buzz around the city centre.

“For weeks, anytime I’ve walked around Glasgow I’ve seen people dressed in all pink.
