80% Le Roi Fou, Edinburgh, takeaway review Gaby Soutar June 5, 2020 Food, General, In the News, Restaurant Review A perfect paper-weight of a glacier. It’s been a while since I had a negroni. After choosing this cocktail (£9) as part of a delivery from Edinburgh restaurant, Le Roi...
70% Soi 38, Edinburgh, takeaway review Gaby Soutar May 29, 2020 Restaurant Review The collage of printed menus spelt TAKEAWAY. It was hard to see inside, because there were so many of them taped to the window. I’m finding it tricky to rate...

75% Ola Kala, Edinburgh, restaurant review Gaby Soutar April 24, 2020 Food, Restaurant Review I was planning a mini-break to Athens about now. Luckily, something stopped me from booking those pre-lockdown flights a few months ago. Who cares, holidays are overrated,...
90% Alby’s, Edinburgh, restaurant review Gaby Soutar April 17, 2020 Food, Restaurant Review By the time you read this, Alby’s might be open again. When I visited this sandwich place, a couple of weeks ago, we were in pre-lockdown limbo and it had switched to takeaway and delivery within EH6 mode...
