Edinburgh: The Food

We had some really delicious meals in Edinburgh.


First up was an Italian cafe where I had stromboli and a warm cuppa tea, a necessity here.




For dinner, we went to a restaurant to try a classic Scottish dish: haggis.  I’m not exactly sure what was in it, but it was delicious so I’m not going to question it.  I think it has to do with sheep’s innards.  We split the haggis around the table and I ended up with macaroni and cheese that was amazing. 



Carbo-loading?

Breakfast was literally only bread, but lunch the second day was great! We found a yummy restaurant during our explorations.  They served classic Scottish food, but had modern and cute décor instead of the depressing dark wood that plagues taverns and pubs.  Lunch was quite pleasant and the company was fun as well.  For dessert I tried sticky toffee pudding that was sooo delicious and rich.





The food over the weekend was amazing, but I've been eating a ton of vegetables since then to make up for it.  Gotta get those nutrients!

  1. Hi Molly! I've finally had a chance to catch up on your blog. Edinburgh looks fantastic, as does York. It all makes me want to go make a cuppa tea which I think I'll do. Love you, Mom
