Went past Miros cantina last week. All boarded up, anyone know if they have plans to reopen?

Would imagine they will struggle to maintain distance measures in such a small venue whilst still maintaining profitability.

Good point

Takeaway from Nok's Kitchen last night. Have had lunch there a couple of times but never takeaway. Have to say it was just as good.

A very good Thai restaurant.

I was in Dusit at lunchtime, fixed menu @ £15.75.

I've been there in the evening and although its very, very good it is expensive.

It was a decent sized menu and good portion size for a lunch. Well worth the money.

I was Pizza express at the bridges. I was surprised how quiet it was
Told a stroll up and down the Royal mile afterwards, so many places closed
The iconic Worlds End pub closed too. Presume social distancing would be difficult in that pub

Don't think I've ever had a bad meal at Vittoria's and last night was no exception. Calamari, Halibut, and tiramisu with a couple pints of Moretti.

With £10 off, 20% season ticket discount, and a £50 voucher I'd almost forgotten I bought at the start of the year the £90 bill became £13.

The Stockbridge one was packed we could only get an earlier time when I booked. Quite a few famous pubs still shut Haymarket Bar as well.

Done well this week with the discounted grub Pizza Express, 5 Guys, McDonalds breakfast and lunch at the Highland Wildlife Park!

Not sat in yet but had a takeaway pizza from Paolozzi up on Forrest Road, very impressed with it. Looking forward ti sitting in and trying out the rest of the menu.

Owner is a big Hibby as well!

Didn’t realise you could combine the 20% season ticket discount with the £10 off, that’s brilliant!

I wasn't sure if they would either but figure they're not actually losing out with the EOTHO so figured I'd just ask and see what happened.

Took advantage of the eat out to help out scheme for the first time yesterday. Blend Cafe in Perth High Street. Large latte and slice of peanut butter brownie for £2.55.

As for the brownie, chocolate ganache with peanut butter swirled through it is the best way to describe it. 🤤

The itison voucher scheme for Leith Walk launches on Monday, spend £5 on a voucher that gives you a £10 spend. An initiative to help businesses recover trade lost due to tram works. There was a similar scheme for Constitution Street earlier in the year.

I'm hearing the Constitution Street one is coming up again soon.

Surprised if it is, at all the meetings I attended they stressed that they only had a certain budget for each scheme and couldn’t go beyond it. Maybe they have had that budget extended if they are to run it again for Constitution Street.

Does this apply for takeaway too, or just eating in

It’s not specific just to restaurants or takeaways any business in Leith Walk can participate regardless of what they sell.

So they’re getting a second one! Fair enough they need all the help they can get, when business planning started for the tram project we had no idea Covid would hit also, a double whammy hitting everyone hard.

I don't know if you've been down that way in the evening recently. My wife and I were at the Chop House during the week and thought we'd go for a drink beforehand. Only one bar was open down that way, the Port o Leith, it was Covid-19 distanced full so we ended up in the Bowlers Rest, Mitchell Street, also Covid-19 rules apply. Really friendly wee place.

You wouldn't need vouchers there, I couldn't believe how cheap it was. One extreme to the other.
