well I'll not be rushing to go there then!

Pretty poor review though having listened to some of the guff spouted by food critics over the years in other establishments that I have subsequently enjoyed I won't totally write it off.

Was at pizzaria 1926 last night and it was excellent. Probably the best pizza ive had outside naples. The deep fried sharing platter starter was realy good as well. Plenty sea food involved but the pasta ball with a little cream and peas was the higlight of that.

Heading out shopping with then wife and kids in a couple of weeks. Where's a good central place in Edinburgh for family lunch? Can't be a Witherspoon's apparently! Was think of Jamie's Italian but heard mixed review. Nothing too fancy for the kids but any advice for places to would be greatly appreciate.

You might like Bread Meets Bread on Lothian Rd, good food and kid friendly. I like the Hard Rock, but prices are mental

In addition to the other recommendations, there's a new place on the High Street, BubbaQ's, burger and rib place, reasonably priced and decent food.

I want to try that place.

Locandi de Gusti is one of my fave restaurants and they had a Facebook post about the place so I assume they're related - makes sense with ldg being Italian but not a pizza sort of place.

What was the price like? Pretty reasonable?

I'd heard about BubbaQ's as well, wasn't too sure if it was connected to Bubba Gumps.

It was very reasonable. 2 pizzas, the previously mentioned starter which was a good size, half pint and 0.25l carafe of wine for under £30.

Doubt it'll be long before i visit again.

I quite like Quattro Zero in Queensferry Street next to Zizzis. Always good value imo and good service. And good for unfussy meal with kids/family.

Not rubbery at all?

[Hiber-nation]

Tried Origano last week. Nice pizzas and friendly service but not as good as La Favorita in my opinion. Also you could hardly read the menus it was so dark.

We attempted to go to Dishoom on Saturday, we had no booking as you have to have a party of 6+ turned up at 6.45 to be told it would be a 2 hour + wait and we couldn't Go into the bar as it was packed!

went over opposite to Zest pretty standard stuff but a decent curry.

Heading to Philadelphia and New York later on in the year and wondering if anyone has recommendations for places to go. Been to New York before but not for ages, thinking of trying Dead Rabbits as I’ve heard great things about it

The Dead Rabbit is great, just been voted best bar in the world, great food and drink ( pricey ) but always busy, get there early, see you there in July

I'm pleased to hear one of the rejected names for the Time for Heroes DVD has been put to good use.

Was at a wedding in the Dunblane Hydro over the weekend just gone and we had two cracking meals whilst there.

1) India Gate, just down from the hotel - we had an excellent meal in here and it was good value for money. Would definitely recommend it! Apparently, they also have branches in Stirling and Alloa?

2) The Kailyard - well deserving of its reputation. Food was impeccable!

Is it still Nick Nairn at The Kailyard? I was there about 3 years back and wasn't that impressed tbh. Lovely setting but service was pretty slow and the food was bordering on cold when served. Could have just been an off night I suppose.

It is still Nick Nairn, aye.

Definitely no issues when we were there - superb service, and despite being a busy evening service, the food was really good!

The lunch deal in Quattro Zero is great value for money. Think it's £6 for a starter and main off the top of my head. Not sure if it's just weekdays though.

Has anyone been into the barrel house along at jocks lodge? Every time I pass it looks quite good.

Where would be a good place for a group of around 17 guys for dinner on a stag day? Not an overly loud group, just decent quality for a decent price. Beers and such like?

La Favorita on Leith Walk will give you the private room and look after you. PM me if you want a set deal set up with food and beer.

Might be too late depending on when it is but Bodega on Elm Row is 20 person capacity so you could book the whole place and is BYOB.
