The Best Autumn Foodie Treats In Edinburgh
Seasons change and so the weekly ritual of sipping booze and devouring picnics outside once more become a figment of the imagination. Stop moping — all the food-related fun kicks off in autumn. The colors of Scotland during this time are an artist’s inspiration, just as the produce is a chef’s dream, too. From wholesome hearty dishes and decadent sips to tasty light bites, discover the best autumn foodie treats to find in Edinburgh.
1. Whet The Appetite With The Autumnal Menu At The Kitchin
Restaurant, French, European, British, Contemporary
Foodie or not, embark on a dreamy culinary experience and epic ‘nature to plate’ feast at The Kitchin. The a la carte autumn menu features mouthwatering seasonal bites. Why not opt for the fresh scallops hand-dived from Orkney or the oysters from the Isle of Cumbrae? Alternatively, choose from terrine of game from the Borders, rabbit from Pathhead, roasted red-legged partridge from Perthshire, Highland lamb, or even the abundance of berry infused desserts from Blacketyside Farm. Those who like the full works (and then some) should indulge in the mouth-watering option of the ‘Sample Celebration Of The Season’ set menu, which contains the chef’s top autumnal picks.
