We had a restaurant recommended to us called First Coast and it was so good we ended up eating there every night – for those who may have accused me of being fussy in the past – this is a restaurant with no buts! There was a very memorable dinner that involved a couple of delicious bottles of Pinot Grigio and some introspective conversations.
We spent a bit of time just wandering around the city looking at the shops, including a trip to Jenners, the Hannahs of Scotland. We also found a great place for breakfast called Tiger Lily where I had my first Eggs Benedict for months and it was delicious!
We also went to an exhibition called “The Naked Portrait” – it’s all in the title! It was really interesting and the photograph of Linford Christy was a highlight.
We also managed to catch the opening of the Fringe Festival and saw a couple of comedy acts and Greg McHugh was a standout – some very funny commentary on road rage.

You should try Glasgow next time - I loved it so much more than Edinburgh - but it might be a little too grotty for you (more like London than Edinburgh)
