A birthday cake review of Licks Cake Design

June 19, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Dangerously easy. I think a custom birthday cake is a great way to celebrate the day, but it requires you to book well in advance and be happy to pay for the time and skill involved. Licks Cake Design is my one and only experience of the process, but it’s one that’s convinced me to do it again.

A review of the Urban Jungle Brunch Room by Seb’s Urban Jungle on Leith Walk

May 15, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A friendly cafe and plant shop, what a great combination, and an oasis of green near the urban throb of the foot of Leith Walk. It’s one I recommend.

A review of Chums, a takeaway in Leith

April 30, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Chums is a warm and friendly coffee and/or pie shop in Leith; it’s around the corner from the beaten track but worth exploring to find. It’s not had to see. Only a few minutes before that meeting? Chums will help.

It’s now a legal requirement for large businesses to show calorie information on menus.

A review of Passey’s, a cafe bar and bistro in Portobello

March 31, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A fantastic small restaurant on Portobello high street that’s reason enough to visit Edinburgh’s seaside town. The food is incredible, staff friendly and the venue warm and fun. And they do coffee.

March 21, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A vegan sandwich boutique that offers crafted perfection at a fair price, with baking, coffee and sometimes amazing treats like vegan dogs. One to check out.

Aaaw yis! @gautamsedinburgh goes on the recommended list. Just off the festival beaten track but close enough to visit between shows. This is a starter dish!
A super #giraffeabouttown
Breakfast at @thehavencafe is always a treat and if I put different toppings with my pancakes it counts as exploring the menu. Right?
I bought a summer shirt (therefore ending summer) but I thought this corner of @_yellow_souls_ was equally worthy of finding a new home. Just as strong summer vibes!
Gang, @harmoniumbar's cauliflower steak of is worth fighting through the crowds for!
I enjoyed my trip to @nott_edinburgh and finding out what their Turkish Pizza was like! Delish.
