Azas Kitchen :-)

Azas Kitchen :-)

Azas Kitchen The end of Lunchquest is nigh but there always seems to be one more place and one more point of interest to capture before we finally swan off into the sunset. Today's hook was the words 'homemade lorne sausage' on the window of a little all-day takeaway cafe called Azas Kitchen. Right....

Three.14 :-)

Three.14 :-)

Three.14 I was feeling a little ropey after another fun evening of reacquainting myself with the delights of midweek drinking in Edinburgh. I was in need of sustenance relatively close at hand so headed for a bakery called Three.14 which was new to me. The name is a pi/pie riff. It's always good to....

Annakut! :-)

Annakut! :-)

Annakut I'd heard some strong reports in Indian vegan and vegetarian specialist Annakut so was keen to visit while I was staying on this side of the city. They serve their full a la carte at lunchtime. It features dishes with a multi-region Indian approach with a number of dishes from Kerala, Gujara...

Merienda! :-)

Merienda! :-)

Merienda I was sad to hear that Goya 23 had ceased trading as I was a fan of their Spanish stylings and excellent range of sherry. In its place comes another place with a Spanish influence called Merienda. Featuring small plates in the tapas style, the emphasis is on local produce prepared with care...

Bridgend Farmhouse! :-)

Bridgend Farmhouse! :-)

Bridgend Farmhouse I'd been meaning to visit the Bridgend Farmhouse cafe since I returned to the city and with my temporary abode just round the corner in The Inch I had the ideal opportunity. Part of the Bridgend Farm allotments, growing projects, and community hub, the cafe trades during the day o...

Le Bistrot by Patisserie Maxime :-)

Le Bistrot by Patisserie Maxime :-)

Le Bistrot by Patisserie Maxime I remember a couple of joyful visits to Le Bistrot by Patisserie Maxime when they popped up at the French Institute on Randolph Crescent during the Festival a couple of years back. The Institute has recently moved to the old Lothian Chambers on George IV Bridge and Le...

Absolutely Fabulous! :-)

Absolutely Fabulous! :-)

Absolutely Fabulous I've been staying for a few days at The Inch, a neighbourhood where my great auntie used to live, in between Cameron Toll and the Royal Infirmary. While it is not exactly overstocked with food and drink options, there is a little parade of shops contained within which boasts a ch...

Urban Fox! :-)

Urban Fox! :-)

Urban Fox Where Hewat's traded for many years before moving to their current Royal Mile venue, the Urban Fox has taken over. I popped in at lunchtime to give it a look. The place has had a full refit with the decor now full of dark browns, aubergine and to***co. Chunky wooden tables are matched…

Bravo! :-)

Bravo! :-)

Bravo I was wandering without too much of a direction, as is often my way, when I discovered that 2Nice, the Ukranian cafe on Dalry Road, was no more. In its place was a cafe called Bravo which looked to be ploughing a similar furrow but without the Ukranian specials. Little did I know that…

Buenos Aires Grill! :-)

Buenos Aires Grill! :-)

Buenos Aires Grill Comparison is odious, but it's hard not to fall into the trap upon locally bumping into dishes and restaurant styles I've seen in their natural habitat on recent travels. The latest opportunity for this was on a recent lunchtime visit to Musselburgh's Buenos Aires Grill. I was joi...

Nilgiri Spice! :-)
27/02/2019

Nilgiri Spice! :-)

Nilgiri Spice It's Friday night, everyone's had a long week, and a beer or two has been taken. Time for a curry, right? Well, that was my thinking when, with regular guest questers Freya and Hayley along with first time quester Claudia, we found ourselves a few drinks in to a glorious evening at Bra...

La Casa! :-)

La Casa! :-)

La Casa Although it quickly grew in scope beyond a focus on the middle of the day meal, Lunchquest was primarily set-up to highlight how well Edinburgh caters for those seeking lunch in its many forms. In the sites final few weeks in its current incarnation, it was joyful to have the time to get…
