Teuchters Landing (Leith)

• An ironic touch perhaps as this expression is used lowland Scots to describe someone from the Highlands
• John and Peter came up with the concept of the Room in restaurants in the West End and Leith and opened Teuchters Landing in 2008
• What John and Peter are aiming to do is provide a home from home
• S a deck outside where you can chill when the weather is bright and warm (Peter was down on his hands and knees revarnishing it whilst we were there)
• Many ingredients are organic and local producers get a name check
• You can start small with a bowl of porridge or venture to the Big Carnivores Plate or Big Vegetarian Plate
• The pancakes were light and fluffy
• This arrived on a wooden platter with some very good chips and 3 pots to dip into
• The barbecue sauce was perhaps a touch vinegary for my taste
• This had been my first choice before I decided to go with the pancakes
• The lunchtime crowd was filling the tables
• Teuchters Landing is quickly becoming a lunchtime favourite
• Whisky lovers should try their luck with the hoop of destiny
• Hidden away with such character
• Lazing around there with a gin in my hand
• I've yet to properly try out the food there but did order a portion of chips which was quite a lot for one person
• A must visit place if you are in good old sunny Leith
• It has a beer garden which is great when it's sunny
