Famous principally for its historically significance and yearly comedy festival, Edinburgh is starting to rival the likes of London and Birmingham for variety and quantity of eateries. Edinburgh proves a worthy advisory for Glasgow when it comes to a great Indian meal, even though Glasgow was named curry capital of the UK. The Indian Cavalry Club embraces the colonial splendour of the Raj in all aspects from décor to menu. Balli's excels in offering great variation in all courses and a great diversity in naans and chapattis and Kalpna should satisfy all vegetarian curry fans. Black Bo’s gives a more traditional take on vegetarian cuisine, with old favourites such as soufflés and pastry parcels rejuvenated with modern ideas. Thai, Mexican and Sudanese cuisine is found at its best at the Siam Erawan, Coconut Grove and the Nile Valley Restaurant. As is only right and proper, Scots cuisine takes centre stage in this main city. A Room In The Town is one of the flagship restaurants in a Scottish renaissance. The restaurant makes a feature of great, traditional Scottish ingredients, such as oatcakes, black pudding and fresh game.
