A gorgeous Dimly lit brasserie hidden away on West Thistle Street Lane, this little escape reminds me of France in every way - a little slice of Paris (and sometimes Brittany). The food is utterly delicious and they're quite keen on organic produce, even their wine tends to be from organic sources. The perfect place to dine with a book, a friend or a lover *wink wink nudge nudge*.

Fabulous gastropub on the shore of Leith. If you fancy venturing out to one of the most interesting and vibrant neighbourhoods in the city, this is the place. They offer amazing seafood. It has a lovely view of the Water of Leith, great architecture and of course the giddy delights and charm of Leith.

One of my favourite coffee spaces, beautifully simple and minimal. Neatly tucked in a stunning basement space, small and polished... if you like Scandinavian design and roasters then this place will give you just that. They're quite good at tea too!

A fantastic Michelin-starred restaurant in lovely Leith - great for that cab ride across town - boasting the best of Scottish produce gorgeously prepared using french techniques. The decor is just as delicious, fabric everywhere... tweeds and sheepskin tastefully displayed. There's also a wee whisky snug.

This is my utmost favourite place to eat in the city. I nearly had a heart attack when I heard that there was a fire a few doors away from the establishment several months ago, the thought of it closing was utterly soul destroying. I literally cycled there in the middle of the night have a look. It's cosy, well decorated, well thought and just downright perfect. The food is divine, the cocktails mouthwatering and the general ambience, just perfect. You have to go!
