Violife vegan cheese review – what you need to know…
Ad – this is a collaborative post. Some people may think that being a vegan means you’ll never be able to eat cheese again, but after trying out the Violife range, we can confidently say this isn’t the case! The choice of vegan cheese from Violife is so impressive and from smokey slices to grated…
Review: Taste of Scotland at Usquabae Bar, Edinburgh
Having missed the first series in Taste of Scotland at Usquabae Bar we were delighted to be asked to visit and try out their second offering. Usquabae Bar is situated in the West End of Edinburgh, just under Ryan’s Bar. A Taste of Scotland is a 6 course offering, showcasing the best the Highlands and…
Cakes and Coffee at Patisserie Valerie, Edinburgh
When an email pops into your inbox asking you if you’d like to try cake and coffee at Patisserie Valerie on George IV bridge, it’s very hard to say no! With coffee and cake being Mr Edinburger’s great love (I’d say if you asked he’d put them above me!), he was willing to miss the…
Luxury Hampers from Highland Fayre
We were recently asked if we would be interested in sampling a food hamper from Highland Fayre. You can usually count on us not to turn down any sort of food and also thought this would be an ideal chance to try out a potential Christmas pressie (you can’t go wrong with a good hamper)….
Are You Game To Try Something New?
We recently received some products to sample from Wild and Game. We hadn’t come across the company before and the products listed on the website sounded delicious so were keen to give the food a try. Wild and Game were only established in 2017 with the aim of “introducing more consumers to all types of…
Review: Tasty Takeaway From The Radhuni, Loanhead
A few weeks back we got the chance to sample a takeaway curry from The Radhuni. We were soon due to be moving home and with the new house being only 5 minutes drive away we thought it would be a great opportunity to try out a new local curry house. That aside we’ve never…
Review: Damm 27, Edinburgh
Snuggled away in the Southside is a stylish new bar Damm 27. Only recently opened in April this year it has undergone an extensive refurbishment. The result is a stylish, contemporary bar and bistrot that offers all-day dining, with a menu inspired by classic European dishes. We visited to try out their Lobster Tuesdays. On…
Review: One Square Edinburgh
We visited One Square at The Sheraton Grand a couple of weeks ago to sample some dishes from their newly launched menu. Following the recent promotion of Shaun Woodhouse to Executive Chef, the One Square menu has gone through an overhaul. “A firm believer in simplicity, Shaun has changed the One Square menus to showcase…
Simply Cook Review: Does This Recipe Box Offer Good Value for Money?
Recently we signed up for a trial box from Simply Cook. Partly because we are trying to cook at home more, partly because it was a discounted first box and partly to see if it would improve my kitchen repertoire which essentially consists of one dish! Read on to find out what we thought of…
Review: The Sheep Heid Inn, Edinburgh
We paid a return visit to The Sheep Heid Inn a couple of weeks back on a Monday evening (Monday night is the new Saturday night for us seeing as Mini Burger spends the night at his Grandmas!). Somehow it’s been almost three years since we last visited, where we enjoyed a delicious Sunday roast….
Review: Breakfast at Chop House Leith, Edinburgh
A few weeks ago mini burger had an overnight at Grandmas. We thought we’d make the most of the peace and quiet and squeeze in a chilled Sunday morning breakfast at Chop House Leith. We’ve been previously for dinner and the steak was superb so assumed the breakfast was a fairly good bet. The restaurant…
