[QUOTE="Scott-C, post: 2106174, member: 374531"] Aaand relax! Am now four days into a two week staycation, haven't been hospitalized or arrested yet, despite a few, erm, "late nights" in a variety of Edinburgh drinking establishments, so it's all looking good on that front. Decided to check out some dining options round town. There's been a posh fish restaurant, [URL='https://www.ondinerestaurant.co.uk/']Ondine, [/URL]in town for a few years now, does a fairly decently priced set lunch, and they've just set up [URL='https://www.thefishmarketnewhaven.co.uk/']The Fishmarket[/URL] in the Newhaven bit of town , basically gastro-fush and chups where they've figured out how to make the batter just be crispy enough without getting claggy, so had about 130g of that a couple of days ago, just yer basic cod, but might pop back for the posher breaded monkfish option, cos, well, I'm on holiday.
