About Local Chef
Our old friend Local Chef has been eating solid food since the early 80's and cooking in professional kitchens for the past 15 years. A huge fan of fresh produce, hater of burgers and sloppy service, his favourite foods are classic European and modern Eastern/Asian. We're delighted to have him on board to write for us, join Local Chef here on his jaunts around Edinburgh and beyond as he seeks edible perfection and casts a quizzical eye over new and established eateries.
