An post-lunch stroll past Edinburgh Castle
Fave pic above is the Hare Ravioli. 2nd fave is that amazing cheese board. But it ALL looks incredible. So glad you had a good trip, and welcome home!
Great photos, Jo. Really classy plating going on there. The cheese selection is incredible too.
Not a bad job shooting without your “lighting guy” around. ;-) Thanks for sharing these with us.
