Nibble - 14 February

On the Grapevine

Edinburgh is buzzing.

• Margarita Mile is a six‑week citywide celebration running from 18 Feb–31 Mar. Salt rims at the ready.

• Panda & Sons are going full agave with a one‑night mezcal takeover for National Margarita Day, 22 Feb.

• Vittoria Group are importing a little Italian glamour, bringing Amorino®’s luxury gelato to Scotland for the first time.

• Uncle Tiger has landed on Bristo Place, shaking up the late‑night scene with rotating Asian flavours and proper after‑dark energy.

• And in case you missed it: Michelin dropped its stars in Dublin last Monday — plenty for Scotland to chew over.

  
  

Where We Sipped & Savoured

A week of very good eating:

• Mootz — sandwiches that prove lunch can still surprise you.

• Gio’s — one year on, still charming, still delicious.

• The Spence — Chef Elliot Hill is showing exactly why he’s one to watch.

• Bistro Du Vin — Sunday Market Lunch with live jazz; the kind of afternoon that resets your whole week.

• The Grouse & Claret, nr Kinross
