Self-styled ‘future farmers’ The Free Company are based out in Balerno, where they run fantastic supper clubs offering seasonal set menus. They’ve been established since 2017, but I first heard of them the other week. Where have I been!
Whilst Callendar is further afield than the location of most of our reviews, it’s well worth a visit. The lovely wee town, known to foodies for the marvellous Mhor Tearoom and Mhor Fish restaurant, is around an hour from Edinburgh by car. It’s also a great place for gift shopping,…
There was plenty of hype around Aizle-offshoot Noto when it opened in August. As a long time fan of Stuart Ralston’s first venture, I was excited to visit.
Holyrood Distillery: a sensory experience
Nestled amongst Newington’s residential buildings at the edge of Holyrood park, Holyrood Distillery is an homage to flavour that brings the magic of distilling right into the city.
Looking back through the EdinburghFoody archives, Voujon is a restaurant that has stood the test of time. First Caroline went in 2013, then Kerry in 2016. So, here in 2019, it was certainly my turn. And luckily for you, we’ve all eaten something different over the years!

From the first page of the menu I felt a wave of delight. There was chawanmushi, and there was dobinmushi; two of my favourite dishes, so rarely found in the UK. Their presence immediately signalled a flair of authenticity.
With no particular reason to visit Bulgaria, Dad and I found snowy Sofia made for a charming weekend break. Even right in the city centre, it’s rich in history. Dotted amongst the post-Soviet apartment blocks, you’ll find Roman ruins in your local subway station, or a tiny medieval church below…
In short, you should go to Konkana. Spoiler alert; the quality of the food is well above your average Indian experience, yet casual enough to avoid being dubbed ‘fine dining.’ Reasonably priced meals with a focus on seafood, accompanied by an excellent wine list, make for a delectable evening of…
