Edinburgh
Another week in Edinburgh. This time staying at the Raddison. No free Internet access, though trying to gather lots of points on my hotel card which should give me free access.
Ate at the hotel, rather late, just before 10.00pm. Had well presented food. The idea was you select 2-3 foods. I had Salmon which was served and grilled on a block of wood, some very thin slices of beef with salad and horseradish sauce and a plate of chips.
There seems to be a trend, which is quite good, to serve bread with some olive oil for dipping. The olive oil has some flavourings added. I have seen reduced Balsamic vinegar. Here they served the olive oil with some olive Tapenade. Adds quite a lot of flavour to the dipping oil.
