Castle Terrace

Little more than a year after opening in 2010, TV chef Tom Kitchin's second Edinburgh
restaurant, under chef-patron Dominic Jack, was awarded a Michelin star. The menu is sea-
sonal and applies sharply whetted Parisian skills to the finest of local produce, be it
Ayrshire pork, Aberdeenshire lamb or Newhaven crab - even the cheese in the sauces is
Scottish.

The latest sushi restaurant to open in Edinburgh goes straight to the top of the charts with
its minimalist interior, fresh, top-quality fish and elegantly presented dishes - the squid
tempura comes in a delicate woven basket, while the sashimi combo is presented as a
flower arrangement in an ice-filled stoneware bowl.
