Massive congrats to our wonderful client. Repost from @cafesthonore on Instagram: - We’re thrilled to have won the Treat Staff Fairly award at the @foodmadegood #FoodMadeGood18 Awards last night. @raymondblanc OBE, President of the SRA, said: “Year after year, chefs and restaurateurs continue to delight me with their winning submissions to The Food Made Good Awards, demonstrating how food can be a powerful force for good. Their greatest reward would be for consumers to eat in their dining rooms and for their colleagues across the industry to follow their lead.” The Treat Staff Fairly award is one of ten categories that align with the ten key themes of the SRA’s Food Made Good sustainability framework. Operators fulfilling all ten meet the very definition of a good restaurant or foodservice business. @chefneilforbes said: "Since taking over Café St Honoré 10 years ago, and even before that, I knew I wanted to run a restaurant properly and to be a good employer. There are so many elements to getting this right, but in essence I make sure the people that work alongside me at Cafe are paid well and feel properly looked after. To be recognised for this at this year’s Food Made Good Awards is simply fantastic. I’m thrilled, and I know the rest of the team are too.” #sustainability #treatstafffairly #foodmadegood #awards #winners #edinburgh #edinburghrestaurants #cheflife #raymondblanc
Another great #photoshoot with @susielowephoto yesterday @brewcopotterrow made even better by the news that @standrewsbrewco raised just under £650k in their crowdfunding campaign. Very excited to see all the pics from the shoot, and to follow all the exciting expansion plans! #morebeer #newbars #lagerdebut #beer #brewpub #pub #scottishhospitality
A new restaurant on Calton Hill! We're delighted to be working on this very exciting new venture from the wonderful people at @thegardenerscottage The Lookout by Gardener’s Cottage - @thelookoutbygc - is an exciting partnership between our clients and contemporary art organisation @Collective_edin, the organisation currently re-developing the City Observatory site on Calton Hill into a new home for contemporary art. Built on a cantilever so the restaurant is partially suspended over Calton Hill’s northwest slope, The Lookout by Gardener’s Cottage will feature floor to ceiling glass windows and promises panoramic views across Edinburgh and the Firth of Forth. As well as the restaurant, the new site on Calton Hill incorporates the restored City Observatory and City Dome, along with new purpose-built exhibition space The Hillside. #openingsoon #edinburghlookout #towardsacityobservatory #caltonhill #edinburgh #thisisedinburgh #edinburghfood #newrestaurant #collective #art #contemporaryart #cantilever #architecture #views #panoramic #dining #visitscotland #scotland

Pasta and wine is a match made in heaven. And from Friday 30th March, @quaycommons in Leith will be serving up a tempting menu of seasonal pasta dishes with incredible wines to match… 🍝🍷🍝🍷🍝🍷🍝🍷 The bakery and cafe will be opening its doors on Friday and Saturday evenings for dinner that promises to be relaxed, friendly and affordable. Owner and chef Dale Mailley said: “When our head baker Dominic hangs up his apron for the day, me and my team of chefs and I will take over the reigns of the bakery, making fresh pasta that we’ll pair with the best ingredients we can source. We want this to be a really accessible option for dinner, so the menu will stay small and fresh. We want people to feel well fed and to enjoy an amazing glass of wine without breaking the bank.” Dale, who also operates The Gardener’s Cottage with business partner Ed Murray, has developed the evening menu to be adaptable to the seasons with dishes including Newhaven crab tagliatelle and pappardelle with mutton and tomato ragu being served during the launch period. Dale continued: “We really want our pasta menu to be flexible, so we will be experimenting over the opening period. Our day-time menu at Quay Commons has evolved since we opened last summer as we discovered what our customers enjoyed the most. One thing we always guarantee is the high quality of the food we serve. I’m looking forward to creating a lovely little spot for dinner in the heart of Leith.” Situated on Commercial Street in an old bonded warehouse, Quay Commons operates 7-days a week as a bakery and cafe, as well as supplying numerous Edinburgh businesses with sourdough bread, cakes and pastries, distributed in their zero-emissions electric van. There’s also a daily selection of organic fruit and vegetables for sale, found in the covered archway leading to the door, and an array of wines and spirits for guests to take home and enjoy. Outside seating behind the building means morning coffee-drinkers and evening pasta-eaters alike can enjoy some fresh air when the weather allows. #pasta #wine #edinburgh #Leith #cafe #bakery #edinburghfood #pastanights #QCPastaNights #seasonal #oldworldwine
