You guys deserve heaven. I was so worried because I was thinking: " well, next Summer I'll be there, I'll end up in bankruptcy, still I know I won't regret it" but now I can see that there's no need of spend all my savings in Edinburgh. Thank you so much!
Kakibot we did!!! We fell in love with the short bread place you suggested and even brought some back to Canada with us. Really has become my favourite place to visit to date
One of my favorite cheap eats for lunch was the Union of Genius restaurant close to the university. Superb soups and spectacular breads which change up every day. Totally satisfying.
Aaaah yes Mosque Kitchen! That was the first even cheap eat I tried when I moved to Edinburgh, but I haven't been in ages! Need to give it a go again soon.
Aww thank you! I appreciate that! We're planning to make a second one soon but the weather needs to become a bit more staying-outside-friendly first x)
Great video! I will definitely visit some of these placed when in Edinburgh :) Thanks for probably not letting me go broke the first week in Edinburgh ^^
Glad you liked it .) Things are getting sneakily more and more expensive here >.> but at least we also got a lot of new exciting places since I moved here! It's like a little London! When are you coming?
I am totes taking you there! I love that they cater to different ramen needs - personally I am not much of a tonkotsu gal but the dan dan mein (not really very spicy and a bit creamy thanks to sesame paste, with chicken) really hit the spot... still thinking about it now! What's your favourite ramen type?
Great video! We love Edinburgh and had a great lunch at Clarinda's Tearoom down the Royal Mile. We also made some vlogs about this amazing city on our channel. It has become one of our favorite cities.
I've heard about that place from many friends but never actually been myself! I need to fix this soon! Glad to hear you loved Edinburgh, it's just such a great place.
How are you so cute!? Like super adorable all the time! 😍💕 I don’t eat meat but omg the noodle dish in the thumbnail looks absolutely delicious! Loved this vlog! 😘
Aw man, now I feel like this video is super meat heavy! Thankfully if you ever visited I'd have many non-meat-eater tips for you too! Edinburgh has a pretty groovy meatless scene!
Kakibot omg no worries! I totally respect meat eaters 🤗 Awww I hope I’ll get to visit one day! That sounds like so much fun! 💕😘 Happy Saturday evening! xoxo
What about the Tempting Tattie?! Most famous jacket potato shop in all the world! The large is truly massive and cheap! Ask for a Richard Herring, which is orange cheese and mango chutney, named for the comedian who eats there every fringe and won't shut up about it.
Hahaha I love curry so passionately that I don't wanna fill up on naan if I can inhale more lamb and chicken and buttery spinach and aubergine soaked in spicy oil instead! .DD But don't get me wrong, naan is still an important part of my curry experience!
Good review but please boycott places that sell Halal meat. It's barbaric and unnecessary. Did you know that slaughterhouse in Scotland are struggling to stay open because of restrictions, yet Halal slaughterhouses don't even need to employ qualified people! The death is lingering and horrific. Please don't support anyone that sells it so that it can be stopped. Respect the food you eat and the animal it comes from.
wb243wb if you boycott places that sell halal meat then you would have to boycott most places as a lot of places are supplied meat that are not supplied as halal, but actually is. Also some meat (chicken specifically, supplied from the chicken factory in scun3thorpe) is supplied as halal and has been decreed as halal by the uk halal society, but the actual process for the halal birds in the factory is no different than the non halal process other than the fact an audio track of the recitation used during halal dispatch is played in the background. The chickens are stunned and then killed, which is not allowed in halal meat processing, and people have even protested it for NOT being halal. You can find out the history of the meat you buy, by checking the number that comes on the packaging or ringing the manufacturer. But if you buy it from a butcher or already cooked etc this is harder to do.
McVitie Biccie. Interesting. Yes, most chickens get their throats cut. But it has to stop when it comes to killing a large animal by cutting it's throat. It's just not on. Takes ages to die and is utterly barbaric. A cow or sheep should always be stunned first. And religion shouldn't have anything to do with it.
wb243wb exactly. Theres no merit to halal dispatched meat. My friend (who was brought up as Muslim until he was old enough to decide for his self - no longer being muslim) hates halal slaughter, and can not understand it being used in this day and age.. Like he said to me on many occasions, its no point arguing the fact with devout muslims on the subject, as many of them, they will say that its written in the Koran so therefore it is right. He has argued about this fact with some of his religious friends and relatives. Logic doesnt come in to it as far as they are concerned. Halal dlaughter is one of (not the main reason as there are too many to list) the reasons he left the religion in the first place. Another reason being he never believed in any of the things he was taught growing up. Even when he was given the koran to read, he only spoke English and the koran was in arabic. So he was only taught to read it 'phonetically' so could make the sound of the words written, but did not understand any of what he was reading. Same with prayers. He could say them phonetically, could do the actions required but didnt understand any of it. Like he said, at the end of the day he was never a muslim. He is glad to be out of that side of his life. Happy To have his own beliefs, happy to not have any kind of religion. Happy to not have to eat halal meat. I would rather not have any meat than hala. It saddens me that halal meat still gets in the system of supermarkets and takeaways under the guise of not being halal alaughtered. The meat industry needs better regulations. Take the horse meat scandal. Every single person in this country that ate beef in the UK between 2003 and 2013 will have consumed horsemeat as it was that widely intergrated into the system. Every singlle sector of the market, horsemeat was there. Luckily it never hurt anyone as far as i kmow, but its still disgusting. It should t of happened. Regulations should be stricter. Everything that happens during halal slaughter could still be done with the animal being stunned first, such as the draining of the blood, the prayers etc. Like i said in my last comment, they allow this with chickens, stunning them first, and a tape of the prayer playing in the background (so not even a real imam/muslim saying the prayer live!) And all that is considered halal so why not the same for larger animals?
You guys deserve heaven.
I was so worried because I was thinking: " well, next Summer I'll be there, I'll end up in bankruptcy, still I know I won't regret it" but now I can see that there's no need of spend all my savings in Edinburgh.

Thanks. Nice one.
We have just recently levelled up to car owners so I'd love to explore more outside of Edinburgh! I'll deffo keep your request in mind .)
I'll have to try a few of these places when I head home in September.
Awesome! Glad this video inspired you .) there's also part 2 on my channel now .)
A complete city
It has
Everything
Great video! I will definitely visit some of these placed when in Edinburgh :) Thanks for probably not letting me go broke the first week in Edinburgh ^^
Glad you liked it .) Things are getting sneakily more and more expensive here >.> but at least we also got a lot of new exciting places since I moved here! It's like a little London! When are you coming?
I am starting next year in September when the semester begins at HWU. So excited! Already preparing my stay at EDI with your videos :D
when i was there my favorite places to eat was The Boozy Cow and Whiski Bar & Restaurant :)
Star trek themed! I'm there! It's called Wings right?
I wish I beam there from Texas but I do plan on visiting in Sept next year, yay!
Ive had the ramen there and it was sooo delicious
So happy I found your channel!
I'd throw in Mosque Kitchen in the mosque. Most expensive curry there is currently like 8 pounds.
I need to go to the Japanese place next time! Looks AMAZING :D
Also, your new hair looks so good
I am totes taking you there!

Very helpful. I hope the restaurants are still open in 2022.
I believe most of the cheap eats spots are still around and doing well! .)
Tired rained on wet arrived in Edinburgh hungry-where to eat-went to Subway on the Royal Mile for the footlong BMT for £7.49-so delicious!
What about the Tempting Tattie?! Most famous jacket potato shop in all the world! The large is truly massive and cheap! Ask for a Richard Herring, which is orange cheese and mango chutney, named for the comedian who eats there every fringe and won't shut up about it.
Oooh thanks! I don't think I've ever been actually! A good tip for grim winter days.
She didnt even mention THE ORIGINAL Mosque Kitchen, smdh
We call that LECHON in the Philippines
Great video! We recently visited Edinburgh and checked some places out we have covered on our channel! Wings is AMAZING! Thanks for the tip off!
Try the Piemaker next time
Where is chez ju
i love my city
I must be a glutton cos i can easily gobble up 3-4 of those Naans at one go haha Share with a mate u say??
Hahaha I love curry so passionately that I don't wanna fill up on naan if I can inhale more lamb and chicken and buttery spinach and aubergine soaked in spicy oil instead! .DD But don't get me wrong, naan is still an important part of my curry experience!
I want to meet people from Edinburgh
Sweet.
I can’t walk up or down the Royal Mile without going into Oink. I’m picking pig out of my teeth for the rest of the day, but I don’t care.
No vegetarian options? :(
Lot of veggie options in the sequel to this vid! Check it out
She said 420!!!!!!
Chheee
Beemo is that you?
