It has been many a year since I have visited Edinburgh, but it is still as beautiful as ever. So rife with history and pride, the castle stands tall over all the lands below.

I went to visit a fellow Canadian friend who now lives there and had a lovely time.

While we were there, we went to check out a local restaurant in Leith called Roseleaf that was full of ambience, delicious food, tasty drams and the most amusing host. That, and our dinner table was shared with Mr. Potato Head.

Seriously.

There were board games on the side boards, hats hung on pegs all over the place and tea pots. In a bar.

We found out the reason for this; you can order their special “Pot-tail” concoctions and share them with a friend. They get served in a teapot and a couple of champagne flutes, and then you get to pick out a hat to wear and enjoy a “Mad Hatter’s T party!

Check them out if ever you find yourself in Edinburgh, highly recommended!

Cheers
