Indulge in a communal feast at Bread Street Kitchen & Bar. Highlights include the crab and Isle of Mull cheddar dip and a spectacular sharing Wellington. High-end dining that feels genuinely welcoming and unpretentious in St Andrew Square.
Review: Origano, a serious contender for Leith’s best pizza
Origano on Leith Walk is a must-visit, offering a genuine claim to the “best pizza in Edinburgh” title. Watch chefs at the wood oven, enjoy the buzzing atmosphere, and eat sensational pizza. A show of good taste for any date or family meal.
Review: Greenwoods, Edinburgh
Girdy and Birdy visited Greenwoods on Frederick Street for a late lunch, at Birdy’s behest. Zero regrets from either party!
Review: Mustafa’s Dera, Dundee Street
Recently, myself and Girdy paid a visit to Mustafa’s Dera on Dundee Street – a Scottish Pakistani restaurant we’d been invited to quite a while back, and had somehow never managed to make until now!
Girdy & Birdy Review: Six by Nico
Six by Nico is a fabulous dining experience we’d recommend to anyone who calls themselves a ‘foodie’, or just wants to try something a bit special and unique.
Girdy & Birdy Review: NAM, Haymarket Terrace
NAM is a fab almost hidden gem of a Vietnamese restaurant, although clearly quite popular with locals – we can see why! And, if you don’t fancy going out, you can also order delivery from many of the usual suspects.
A review of Bijou Bistro, a restaurant off Leith Links on Restalrig Road
If French food is synonymous with quality, then perhaps that’s more appropriate as the food here is always top-notch, interesting and rewarding.
A review of In Touch, the Indian restaurant on Inverleith Gardens
Good Indian food, with lots of main courses, matching side dishes but no dessert options beyond coffee at all. In Touch does well with delivery but has a clean restaurant area generally staffed by one waiter.
