Frommer's Review
David Howie Scott started his eponymous restaurant with modest ambitions (for example, guests brought their own wine) and then created a minor empire in Edinburgh, with a couple of branches elsewhere in Scotland as well. In the capital city, there are four. The one on Victoria Street, in Old Town, is probably the most convenient. The minichain's motto is "fine food without the faff" -- and we might add "sold at reasonable prices," as well. Typical dishes include pan-seared supreme of chicken, honey cured Scottish salmon, or gnocchi with fresh basil pesto. You can still bring your own bottle, but the wine list at Howies is as reasonably priced as its menu.
