As someone who is obsessive about all things culinary
-
Yet every now and again it can be a real treat to push the (gravy) boat out with a meal at a gastronomically renowned restaurant
-
The quality of the food at Castle Terrace is such it took a mere 15 months for the restaurant to be awarded a Michelin star
-
Right from entering Castle Terrace it was apparent that we were in for a classy dining experience
-
The interior is beautifully designed
-
It was also obvious that the front of house operation is a well oiled machine set up to provide exactly the right level of attentiveness
-
Glasses of sparkling water had been poured and we were already perusing the set lunch menu
-
Once our order was dispatched to the kitchen
-
Liquid centred hors d'oeuvre that immediately exploded with Caesar salad flavours
-
A deconstructed take on a cheesy baked potato was to follow except this was presented layered in an espresso cup and packed with umami flavour
-
The surprise tasting menu at this Michelin starred restaurant is six courses and
-
Fortunately I was with another "
-
The only downfall of such a wonderful and extensive tasting evening is finding enough compliments to describe the food imaginative
-
Superbly cooked with presentation to put works of art to shame
-
Have one from the collection of scotish drinks and relax down with any of your favourite 'with drink'
-
Our first lunch in Edinburgh was in Castle Terrace
-
Took a Friday afternoon off work to try out The lunch menu at Castle Terrace with some friends
-
The sommelier was a real highlight
-
The lunch menu was small but perfectly formed
-
Flavours and skill on show were truly top level and that was just the hors d'oeuvres
-
Exceptional skill on show with the textures of the egg spot on
-
I started with a lentil soup with pork kormeski
-
Fair to say it'll be the best lentil soup I'll ever eat
-
Punch after lunch of luxurious bold flavours with a familiar comfort food base
-
Main course was a pork pithivier
-
Pastry was crisp and buttery and the pork filling was bursting with meaty goodness
-
No soggy bottoms on show either with the pithivier resting on a ring of griddles onion
-
Small quenelles of chutney with variations of onion sitting in each quenelle
-
One of our party had the skate which got full marks for flavour but was slightly disappointingly presented given the high standards on show everywhere else
-
We all had the dark chocolate mille feuille which was pure decadence on a plate
-
Different textures with varying layers of pastry and an array of depths of flavours on the filling
-
Our sommelier recommended an exquisite Muscat which was the perfect partner
-
As we were on a roll we decided to finish with a shared cheese plate and port
-
The selection was fantastic and was the perfect end to a wonderful meal
-
Couldn't recommend Castle Terrace more especially with such a high level and well priced lunch menu
-
Service here is brilliant and the sommeliers know what they're talking about and are always there to provide good info and help out with alcohol choices
-
Everything was fantastic as you would expect from a (previously) Michelin starred restaurant
-
The general idea of awarding Michelin stars is in effect a badge that conveys
-
This really expensive meal experience is worth the price
-
The service was good and the wine pairing better
-
There was a (desire to insert explicative here) fantastic old fashioned and then we moved to the restaurant after pre dinner bites (pictured) and deciding on the six course tasting with wine pairings
-
I was impressed with the sommelier who was super knowledgeable and the generous pairing pours
-
I adored the cheese course and the whisky/scotch cart was a strong highlight
-
The ambiance is beautiful (gorgeous wallpaper) but missing some romance
-
Our meal was amazing and any critiques are based on comparison of restaurants of similar caliber and price
-
Heading the kitchen is Chef Patron Dominic Jack
-
Food is modern British with a flair of French
-
Food and service was outstanding
-
Excellent wine choice available with advice on which wines to compliment the courses
-
Attention given to those in the party with food allergies
-
One of the best restaurants we have ever dined in
