Not Edinburgh, but if anyone is ever in Liverpool, I can thoroughly recommend these two places, both on Bold Street.

Firstly, Bakchich. It is a Lebanese place and we tried to get dinner there at about 5.30 last Saturday but it was full. We went for brunch the next day and it was excellent. I had the Full Lebanese () and my wife had a vegetarian wrap. Both were lovely.

When we couldn't get in there, we went to a Turkish place further down Bold Street, Akasya. Food was delicious and service was good. The only thing was it seemed like they had rammed in a few too many tables.
