"A post shared by Martin Wishart (@martin_wishart) on Nov 21, 2018 at 12:45am PST. This award-winning restaurant is located in Port of Leith in Edinburgh and it brings modern as well as traditional French cuisine to the locals. Tables decorated with fresh flowers and the cream and mocha color scheme creates the ideal atmosphere for a romantic dinner."

"Restaurant Martin Wishart, Edinburgh|Courtesy of Restaurant Martin Wishart. Edinburgh local Martin Wishart trained under great French masters such as the Roux brothers in his youth. Returning to his home city from France, he was seen as something of a young Turk when he set up a restaurant in the run-down port of Leith in 1999."

"Never one to miss a culinary beat, The Kitchin redefines the nature to plate trend, rendering it less of a fad and more of a mentality. Tom Kitchin’s deep respect for seasonal produce when paired with his honed French cooking style, results in a desirable Michelin-starred menu overflowing with flavour. The garnish, of course, is the knock-out ambience and attention to detail."

"The fame of this Michelin-starred restaurant extends well beyond Edinburgh, not least due to Tom Kitchin’s regular TV appearances. The chef’s ‘from nature to plate’ food philosophy results in destination dining of the highest order."

"Not many food options are more Instagrammable than a tropical açaí bowl or a multicoloured poké bowl. At Hula Juice Bar you’ll have all the most photogenic options on the menu including an epic healthy drinks menu - fresh juices and smoothies, milkshakes, turmeric lattes, matcha lattes and more. Smoothie bowls, poke bowls and lunch bowls take up most of the menu because they’re that good!"

"We didn’t know much about Scottish cuisine, except for Haggis and whisky we couldn’t actually think of anything specific. Imagine our surprise when we discovered the plethora of vegetarian and vegan dining options Edinburgh has to offer!. It must be one of the most vegetarian/vegan friendly cities we’ve come across during our travels so far."

"Get your brunch fix at Hula Juice Bar in Grassmarket, which serves up smoothie bowls, sourdough sandwiches and colourful salads to Edinburgh’s health foodies."

"No visit to Stirling would be complete without a visit to our very own Abbey Craig restaurant. With floor-to-ceiling windows that look out onto beautiful woodland, our restaurant boasts some of the prettiest views of our stunning 330-acre grounds. A firm favourite with both residents and local visitors, our restaurant offers a wonderfully bright and welcoming eating area that you’re sure to love morning, noon and night."

"Oink – about halfway down Victoria Street, with another branch near the foot of the Royal Mile – is a tiny shop serving hog roasts, and you’ll probably smell it before you see it. It sells fluffy morning rolls stuffed with moreish roast pork, crackling and a choice of sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce, chilli relish or haggis. The Piglet (£2.95) suits a smaller stomach, the Oink is somewhere in the middle (£3.95) and the Grunter (£4.95) is best for bigger appetites."

"If you’re hungry, you could stop at Oink for a roast hog sandwich, Scotland’s version of pulled pork, served piled high on your choice of bread, lashed with condiments and a serving of crackling on top. It’s simply delicious and extremely friendly on the budget. If you’re looking for more suggestions on what to eat in Edinburgh, check out this blog post."

"Looking for decent scran (Scottish for 'food') that won’t dent the budget?. Well, Edinburgh is happy to oblige – with everything from authentic Indian tapas to the daddy of all pork baps."

"Dean Cemetery was inaugurated in 1846 and belongs to a beautiful hamlet located very near the city centre called Dean Village. It is one of the most remarkable cemeteries in Edinburgh and if it weren’t for the gravestones it could pass as a tranquil park full of trees."
