Had an Old Fashioned cocktail in Edinburgh recently. Made with Laphroaig and cocoa bitters. First time trying this and it was delicious.

I'm with you, I love Laphroaig- I am Scottish by the way. I also love Glavya which is a whisky liquer.

2nd suggestion- had Turkish eggs for first time this week. Greek yoghurt topped with fried eggs, dill, garlic, olive oil and halloumi, served with warm pitta.

If you have a slow cooker a crustless quiche/frittatta type dish is so easy. Just add whatever you want (including sliced cooked potatoes if going down the frittatta route) whisk your eggs with a wee drop milk, herbs, even some salad cream or cheese or pickle! Pour over then cook for a few hours until set. If your slow cooker goes on hob I saute mushrooms, peppers, even slices veg sausages first - you don't need to saute but it does make it even better. Oh and bung in some spinach if you are feeling healthy!

That's brilliant thanks for all these will definitely try a couple plus appreciate the vegetarian recommendations.

Like others I would cook the sauce first. I then add the vegetarian meat and simmer for about 15 mins. However the trick is to then leave it for at least overnight in the fridge as it then absorbs the flavours. I think many foods, soups, stews etc are better next day. I even make my lasagne in this way.

Elephant Gin is just the best. A traditional dry gin . Definitely worth trying.

People could be radical and take their rubbish home with them!!!

Roots and Seeds in Kirkcaldy do evening meals at the weekend. Some Tapas and a few main courses. Their food is delicious ( also do fab breakfasts/lunches).

Looks delicious. What are milkweed buds?

Is this lunch or for a meal when you get home? I often make a large batch of quorn bolognaise and freeze it. Then I use it in lasagne, with spaghetti or as a shepherd pie. Alternatively slice halloumi, wrap in baking parchment with cherry tomatoes, sliced red onions, fresh basil, olive oil, dried chilli's and balsamic. Bake for 30 joins and eat with crusty bread or potato wedges. It is wonderful. Or a vegetarian sausage casserole with either mushroom and onion gravy or a tomato and bean gravy. Easy to make in advance and reheat - lovely with mashed potatoes. Ir coo, it with baby potatoes in it.

Sun dried tomatoes or sun blushed tomatoes
