Ashamed to say that living in Edinburgh, I have probably walked past here loads of times but never gone in. Thanks to your review I will need to change that (and fast!). Hope you had a great time, brilliant to see you up here
You can see why it's number 1 in the UK. Looks alone, quality ingredients, And superbly cooked. And a lot cheaper than I expected, the owners must be superproud of such an accomplishment 👏👏
@@GaryEats thanks for asking! Very tiring 🤣 I’m a plasterer so got a full bathroom done today! Waiting for some home cooked shepherds pie and veg whilst watching the latest vid!! 🙏🏻
It’s so great to see you in Scotland Gary. The contrasts in the eatery’s you review are absolutely top drawer. As a proud Scot I’m so glad your enjoying it here .❤️🏴❤️
Well things must have changed in 15 years when I drove 3500 miles from Essex round every inlet in Scotland. NOT ONE DECENT MEAL ANYWHERE! In several restraints the sauce in the starter was the same as the main!! In anything that resembles a restaurant the prices were outrageous for rubbish. Given the wonderful coast - no fish! Best was a smokie in a cafe. So to see this is no longer the case in wonderful Scotland.
Gary should be knighted for his services to getting people back to eating out and supporting businesses. I used to eat out a lot but not so much any more. Watching reviews like this get me in the mood to get my backside up and get out there and see what’s on offer. Thanks mate. You are doing a great job.
Hub and me used to eat out three times a week, but a lot of the time, the food was mediocre and very overpriced. We rarely go out now. I don't miss it tbh. I cook at home. So much nicer and probably healthier and a lot, lot cheaper for sure.
Yes, I agree. Whilst I can't afford to eat out every day, Gary has inspired me to try different restaurants & cuisines, rather than sticking to my usual go-to establishments. Well done, Gary. 👏🏻👏🏻
I found the crisp sandwich I was tucking into there watching your review become even tastier elevating it to an 8.5 even without smelle-vision. Your enthusiasm is infectious, always enjoy watching you enjoy good food glad Edinburg delivered. 👍
Try a pickled onion Monster Munch sandwich - open a corner of the bag enough to vent it (cm or so), crush the MM almost to powder and stick it between generously buttered slices of WHITE bread. You can add a twist of black pepper to elevate it even further!
I am EdInburgh based. Passed this place, but never been. Will definitely ‘give it a go’ now. By the way, brave of you to sit outside in Edinburgh in November.
Some of these so called celebrity chefs restaurants could learn a lot from a place like this when they charge extortionate prices for very poor quality food and treat people like mugs ,such an enjoyable review to watch gary you nailed that one number one restaurant number one reviewer keep up the good work
Brill! I love how authoritative you were about not having had a lamb shank on the channel before! Pulling the lamb off the bone was the meat equivalent of the chocolate flake ad back in the day. Great close ups. My head starts moving involuntarily to the screen on these shots. Lovely video ❤
This is a real contrast to the M&C video I watched earlier, the value for money is outstanding in comparison. As always, lovely to see an honest view on these places.
Edinburgh is my favorite city in europe and i have visited a lot of cities! So i love when Gary trying places there so i know where to go to next time ! Love it you are there !
I can see why it's No.1, food looks delicious and the presentation is good. All restaurants should have more than 1 option for mash, it benefits from adding other ingredients and goes so well with sauces and gravy
Happily for me, I live in Edinburgh. I've seen a few stellar reviews of this place, and I'm looking forward to visiting soon. Loved your enthusiasm Gary.
I dont think i have ever seen you react like this gary, you actually didn't even need to speak did you, your expressions said it all, that place looks incredible, Drambuie on chicken , sounds like heaven! And that lamb, wow. Glad you enjoyed. Have to say gary, defo my favourite RUclips channel of 2024, absolutely brilliant, thank you
That’s food that will stick to your ribs, and the fact that it’s so delicious just makes it wonderful. The Scots know how to feed folk! They’re very good hosts. xx
Quality food and no celebrity chef. Comprehensive honest review as ever. Glad such a restaurant is receiving the recognition it deserves. Thanks for taking us along. All the best Pete 👍
Wow! What a fantastic review. That all looked amazing. Smoked cheesy mash. Yum! And the quality of that lamb and your description of the gravy was definitely the next best thing to smellyvision. Thankyou Gary. I think you deserve 10 ⭐️ for the great way you describe everything and your obvious enjoyment when it’s so good.
£23 for that lamb shank was incredible value and equally £18 for the chicken , both dishes looked unbelievable , Mr Stein and Mr Ramsey look and learn because that is how you do it , 10* so easily deserved Gary , great review as usual my friend 👍
Not cheap for Edinburgh......but massive portion... I hardly eat out anymore because the prices are ridiculous...But I would pay 23 quid for that lamb. Compare that to what you would get for the same price at the average mediocre pub chain tho...lol.
Gary I've been to this place back in 2021 and my experience then was incredible and one of the best meals I've ever eaten. Also had to have a cheeky whiskey on the side while I was there. Cant wait to return to Edinburgh and go back here. Great review.
Gary, that was impressive. The quality of the lamb and chicken dishes were outstanding. How tender and flaking were the meats!!! Portions perfect, price of the meals 👌 Fully deserved your 10☆ rating. Beautiful restaurant. Thank you for sharing with us Gary, much appreciated. A real blessing and treat for us 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶
It's also busy because (apart from the fab food) it's on the Mound which is the main thoroughfare between the Old Town and the New Town so they get loads of tourist traffic. It's well deserved too for good, simple cooking.
Hi Gary, I just want to thank you so much for being you! Your enthusiasm is infectious! I have recently gone through throat cancer treatment and cannot taste anything! But watching your videos and your descriptions in your videos allows me to imagine the taste which puts a smile on my face! Keep up the good work 👏 xx Jackie
Hiya Gary.. yeah the food looked great.. and it's always a joy to watch you share not only the food but also you and your joyful persona.. cheers mate!
Love a good peppercorn sauce Gary. Lovely review love the way you interact with staff your a gent. A genuine review love watching you take care you two Safe travels as always 😊
Gary, I have to say that both the lamb and chicken look to be the most delicious meals I’ve ever seen on your channel. What I can’t comprehend is how your son is able to keep calm and stable while filming. I have been fortunate enough to visit Edinburgh three times, and must confess it’s the most beautiful and culturally historical city I’ve ever seen! This restaurant is just off the Royal Mile, a short walk from the magnificent St Giles Cathedral. Great to see you in other cities of the UK, really and truly enjoyed this one. Take good care Gary and looking forward to your next culinary adventure. Kind regards, Rob.
Hi Gary! How lovely to see you in Edinburgh. I have such fond memories of visiting there myself. That is an incredible rating for a restaurant! I was thinking at the start, please don't let this be a let-down for you. 🙏 Seconds before you said "Loads of you are gonna say, not lamb again "... I said to myself, I bet Gary orders the lamb!

Hi Gary, me and my 1 year old son love watching your videos! He's always so calm and focused when I put you on haha! Thanks for making consistently great content
I remember before the days of BSE my dad could get a whole pile of lambs necks from the butcher for next to nothing and make lambs neck stew. The best bit for us kids was sucking out the bone marrow. It's sad we don't have local butchers anymore and even if we did spinal bone marrow is banned.
🎉🎉 Congratulations 🎉🎉 180k Subscribers!! Fantastic channel & totally well deserved, the rise of Gary Eats has been tremendous mate. Well done & all the very best!
Thank you Terry for encouraging me to join Gary's channel. It's a wonderful place to be and there are some lovely people on here. 180k is fantastic. Brilliant xx 😘
I'm so pleased I totally wore you down, & bullied you into it Maria 😂 It definitely puts the other channel we used to follow together, slightly on the back foot nowadays... Gary has set a high standard, for others to try to follow.! Glad you're enjoying it, & yes it's a truly amazing community! With so many wonderful people, which I think we're all proud of, I've definitely met some lovely friends on the channel. 200k before Christmas I'm guessing, which will be amazing for our lovely Gary and the most famous Cameraman in the world 😊 Hope you're having a superb week & thanks for the lovely comment as always Maria! Take care & we'll catch up again soon 😘 xx
@@TelThePower you didn't bully me lol 🤣 I was very happy to be introduced to Gary and his community and haven't looked back since. Yes Gary's put the other food review channels to shame . He's the only one that tries to respond to all of us and he's a gentleman too. Very kind to his subscribers and honest and transparent. The Dad and Son partnership is beautiful so that makes the videos extra special too and Gary's humble and real which makes all the difference. 200k definitely by the end of December, I hope. My week isn't too bad thank you . I hope yours is going well too. Thank you for responding to me . Have a lovely week and evening sweet xx 😘
I have been binge watching your channel since I subscribed. I am from Canada and love all your work and the way you light up when you have had some amazingly good food! Keep up your brilliant work with the same humility and grace that you show on every video!
Brilliant and reasonable prices, I am up in Edinburgh in the new year will definitely pay a visit. Also noticed on the menu kids portions are £7, bargain
Looked at another reviewer's video of a restaurant in Italy where the bill came to 590 euros per couple (200 euro min/person) and the meal was so small and bad that the reviewer left there still hungry.This restaurant in Edinburgh shows that simplicity is what we as customers value more than decor and fancy presentation. Definitely deserving of the national and world rating and there are many many more places like that in Scotland just waiting to be sampled. Loved the review and your 10* rating was spot on!!!!!
for real i never watch food channels but hes are just chilled and he doesnt over do it and just try too hard to be intresting. he comes across as genuine and im glad his channel is doing well now
I took my hubby here for his 40th birthday. We absolutely loved it and lucky enough to get a table (you couldn't book before). Easily one of our favourite restaurants ever
If you’re watching this sequel without sound, focus on visuals like body language, facial expressions, and camera angles to understand the tone and emotions. These visual cues convey the essence without needing audio. Epic! But then I have to turn on audio to get the jokes and after all, selfishly, to improve my English. Thats how my daughter is now improving her English and she likes it. Well done! English conversation at its best.
No offence to Danny as he seems a lovely chap but there’s only so much of that wayhaying and sped-up singing I could handle before I got a bit tired of it. I never miss a GaryEats video though. I just think his words have a bit more depth to them
So good to see an independent restaurant being acknowledged world wide. Uncontaminated by celebrity nonsense and certainly not a tourist trap. What a wonderful city Edinburgh is too. The presentation of each dish was simple yet pleasing on the eye. (They say you eat with your eyes). The key words here Gary are flavour, flavour, flavour ! Top drawer and a 10/10 from me. Dare I say, it's probably the best review on your channel to date..
For me you are absolutely the number 1 content creator on YT. You could review anything from bog roll to super yachts- I’d watch it and enjoy every second Cheers Gary !
That looked spectacular and the use of ramekins was a great aesthetic idea. I think it's fitting that the best restaurant should reside in the UK's most beautiful city. Thank you Gary !
What a stunning review Gary! Oh my - those two meals looked gorgeous - and obviously tasted amazing! what a treat for you that was. A very well deserved top score!
Last review it was a Glasgow “budget”meal this time an Edinburgh Award winning restaurant and how does Gary approach his reviews ,with the exact same non bias and enthusiasm and rating the food and establishments openly and honestly. Another enjoyable review.
Good honest food from good honest people. I spent a year in Edinburgh and enjoyed every minute of it. The Scots wouldn't know how to spell pretentious. That lamb had me drooling.
One of my favourite cities. I was there in 2016 and always said I would return. Another great review Gary. Thank you so much. The lamb and the chicken both looked delicious. Love the way you can choose the mash to compliment the main dish.
Everything that I saw on the menu looked delicious. That lamb shank looked tasty. Great video Gary. Love how you critique every style, price and location of restaurants in your everyman way.
As a proud Ulster Scot, I am envious. 1. You're in Scotland 2. You're in my home from home, Edinburgh. 3. You're eating what I probably would've chosen and loving it. Edinburgh has always had a great drinking and eating out scene and I'm very pleased to see you enjoying it so much. 😋
Ashamed to say that living in Edinburgh, I have probably walked past here loads of times but never gone in. Thanks to your review I will need to change that (and fast!). Hope you had a great time, brilliant to see you up here
It is definitely worth a visit and I had a brilliant time in Edinburgh
This place is on my way to work, didn't give it a second thought
Same, I always assumed it was just some fast food place. I will check it out some time.
As a local I've never been able to get in because it's always booked up solid. Shows how popular it's become.
You can see why it's number 1 in the UK.
Looks alone, quality ingredients, And superbly cooked. And a lot cheaper than I expected, the owners must be superproud of such an accomplishment 👏👏
It looked incredible to me Chris, 180k subscribers by Thursday mate 😉
All the best to you and the family ☺️
It's utterly brilliant Chris. Please don't start making anymore predictions you two! lol
@TelThePower
Nah Buddy, but Friday's looking good 😃🫢
Sorry didn't see the big at the bottom 😅 all the best to you guys also
@@GaryEats Yep - they're both wrong, you've already hit 180k. Congratulations Gary (and cameraman) - well deserved !
Thank you to all.
Looked amazing. Who needs ‘fine dining’ when you can get this level of ‘everyday’ cooking. Great video Gary 👏🏼👍🏼👏🏼
I have to agree completely
proper calm, relaxing videos to watch after a long days work! love it
Glad you enjoyed! How was your day at work?
@@GaryEats thanks for asking! Very tiring 🤣 I’m a plasterer so got a full bathroom done today! Waiting for some home cooked shepherds pie and veg whilst watching the latest vid!! 🙏🏻
The perfect meal, great stuff hope you enjoy it!
Yes I put Garys vids on after work with a cuppa nice to unwind to
Edinburgh born and bred here will need to go there pronto. Delighted you liked my city. Haste yea back!
Give it a go Paul
No gimmicks, it does what it says on the tin.....great place with good value and above all among the best in Edinburgh.
Congrats Gary🙏🙏
Thank you very much and you are right, Michael
It’s so great to see you in Scotland Gary. The contrasts in the eatery’s you review are absolutely top drawer. As a proud Scot I’m so glad your enjoying it here .❤️🏴❤️

Thanks Gary! Great video as always. I’m in Edinburgh in a few weeks for my birthday and have now booked here!! X
I really appreciate that, thank you so much. Give it a go Kelly!
Nice one!
Gary should be knighted for his services to getting people back to eating out and supporting businesses. I used to eat out a lot but not so much any more. Watching reviews like this get me in the mood to get my backside up and get out there and see what’s on offer. Thanks mate. You are doing a great job.

I can't believe watching someone eat food is so mesmerising. You certainly enjoyed that one Gary! Keep up the excellent work.
Thanks so much Steven 👍
I found the crisp sandwich I was tucking into there watching your review become even tastier elevating it to an 8.5 even without smelle-vision. Your enthusiasm is infectious, always enjoy watching you enjoy good food glad Edinburg delivered. 👍
Love a crisp sandwich. My favourite is to stuff cheese and onion crisps into a cheese and tomato sandwich.
Try a pickled onion Monster Munch sandwich - open a corner of the bag enough to vent it (cm or so), crush the MM almost to powder and stick it between generously buttered slices of WHITE bread. You can add a twist of black pepper to elevate it even further!
@@EliteRock, you’d get a fortune off Ramsey for that recipe 😂🤣.

I have to say, the weather was truly amazing
Weather's better the now than it was in the summer
@@jameshepburn81 very true actually. Changes next week.

A big hearted welcome to Scotland Gary, thanks for the genuine respect you show our Wee nation and its ingredients and people.

I couldn’t agree more Stephen
I also hate celebrity resturants. Over priced, under portioned arty farty crap.
I think that’s not really the norm. In 99% of the places where you pay more the services is better. The service is oftentimes dreadful in cheap places
@@debbieball900what’s the obsession with portion size? Are you malnourished?
@@hmu05366 You're not eating the service. I care more about the food.

Welcome to Edinburgh, so glad you could make it, hope you really enjoy your visit.
Thank you very much David. This is a brilliant brilliant city
This is a real contrast to the M&C video I watched earlier, the value for money is outstanding in comparison.
As always, lovely to see an honest view on these places.
M&C is far too overpriced now
Now that's how to present food on a plate! Simple but elegant!!
Looks amazing!
Well said Paul
A plate helps definitely 😅 ( Agree with you)

I love Scotland and Edinburgh. Great people and some amazing places to eat

i live in Edinburgh and assumed this place was probably just okay but popular because of tourists. Now I really have to try it.
Same! - and have just booked it now!
Please give it a go, you will love it
@@GaryEats I shall
Wow that looked superb Gary, and very reasonably priced. In Edinburgh too..one of my favourite cities.
Great review as always, Gary and cameraman 👍
Thank you Phil, it's a magnificent city

Should have a 10* Gary Eats certificate in the window next to that TripAdvisor one. People see that, they know it's a quality establishment.

It may be crass, but sucking out the bone marrow on a lamb shank is a must.
Eat food how you want!
I’d do it off camera 😹
My dog would have loved that bone.. 😮
I remember before the days of BSE my dad could get a whole pile of lambs necks from the butcher for next to nothing and make lambs neck stew. The best bit for us kids was sucking out the bone marrow. It's sad we don't have local butchers anymore and even if we did spinal bone marrow is banned.
I’ve never even thought about doing that. I might have to try it. What does it taste like?

Fantastic channel & totally well deserved, the rise of Gary Eats has been tremendous mate.
Well done & all the very best!
Thank you so much. You're a smashing guy Tel 😀
@GaryEats
As always..... Thanks Gary.
Just following in your footsteps mate 😉 👍🏻
Thank you Terry for encouraging me to join Gary's channel. It's a wonderful place to be and there are some lovely people on here.
180k is fantastic. Brilliant xx 😘
I'm so pleased I totally wore you down, & bullied you into it Maria 😂
It definitely puts the other channel we used to follow together, slightly on the back foot nowadays...
Gary has set a high standard, for others to try to follow.!
Glad you're enjoying it, & yes it's a truly amazing community! With so many wonderful people, which I think we're all proud of, I've definitely met some lovely friends on the channel.
200k before Christmas I'm guessing, which will be amazing for our lovely Gary and the most famous Cameraman in the world 😊
Hope you're having a superb week & thanks for the lovely comment as always Maria!
Take care & we'll catch up again soon 😘 xx
@@TelThePower you didn't bully me lol 🤣 I was very happy to be introduced to Gary and his community and haven't looked back since.
Yes Gary's put the other food review channels to shame . He's the only one that tries to respond to all of us and he's a gentleman too. Very kind to his subscribers and honest and transparent.
The Dad and Son partnership is beautiful so that makes the videos extra special too and Gary's humble and real which makes all the difference.
200k definitely by the end of December, I hope.
My week isn't too bad thank you .
I hope yours is going well too.
Thank you for responding to me . Have a lovely week and evening sweet xx 😘
You could barely sit still, Gary❣️😂 Glorious. And thank you, cameraman, for the beautiful cinematography. You're a dream team❣️
That’s so kind as always Melany ❤️
I have been binge watching your channel since I subscribed. I am from Canada and love all your work and the way you light up when you have had some amazingly good food! Keep up your brilliant work with the same humility and grace that you show on every video!
That’s so very kind and appreciated 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Great stuff as always brother x
Legend! x
Brilliant and reasonable prices, I am up in Edinburgh in the new year will definitely pay a visit. Also noticed on the menu kids portions are £7, bargain
It is definitely worth a visit, David
Looked at another reviewer's video of a restaurant in Italy where the bill came to 590 euros per couple (200 euro min/person) and the meal was so small and bad that the reviewer left there still hungry.This restaurant in Edinburgh shows that simplicity is what we as customers value more than decor and fancy presentation. Definitely deserving of the national and world rating and there are many many more places like that in Scotland just waiting to be sampled. Loved the review and your 10* rating was spot on!!!!!
That is very pricy Ron, needs to be top drawer at that price!
Agree. That video was _"I Survived a Nightmare in Italy's #1 Tourist Trap!"_ on the "Guga" channel.
@@GaryEats ....they were basically paying for the view.
UK (world's) best restaurant reviewer eating at UK best restaurant. The best of the best today.
Thank you very much that's very kind of you Patrick!
That's a natural!
Hi Gary, those meals looked absobloodylutely fantastic. I was drooling just looking at them.
They tasted so good 😊
These videos always improve my mood. “Gary Eats” is the channel of the year for me.
Thank you very much, you're very kind and I'm glad I help your mood
for real i never watch food channels but hes are just chilled and he doesnt over do it and just try too hard to be intresting. he comes across as genuine and im glad his channel is doing well now
Thank you very much
I wanna see Rate my Takeaway set up his little table outside this place😂
That might be a tad difficult lol
@GaryEats But it would be hilarious😆
That would be hilarious, let's get the knacker cracker away. 😂
Hehe now then!
@@louiseed1321 It wouldn't be as epic as when he set up his little table in front of Katz' deli in Manhattan. But it would be pretty funny lol
I took my hubby here for his 40th birthday. We absolutely loved it and lucky enough to get a table (you couldn't book before). Easily one of our favourite restaurants ever
That’s absolutely fantastic to hear Leanne
Gary ur the best youtuber out there
Thank you very much Charlie
Oooh I do love Edinburgh. I'm so glad you came to Scotland Gary and cameraman 🏴🥳
Thank you Rosie, so far so good!
@@GaryEats My favourite city, although my Mum was Glaswegian ☺️
If you’re watching this sequel without sound, focus on visuals like body language, facial expressions, and camera angles to understand the tone and emotions. These visual cues convey the essence without needing audio. Epic! But then I have to turn on audio to get the jokes and after all, selfishly, to improve my English. Thats how my daughter is now improving her English and she likes it. Well done! English conversation at its best.
👍❣️He was literally bouncing 😂
Thank you so much, that's a great comment lol
Good morning Gary from Aussie..
Good evening!
When RateMyTakeAway and Gary release a video at the same time, you know where to come first!
Thank you but I do really like Danny
No offence to Danny as he seems a lovely chap but there’s only so much of that wayhaying and sped-up singing I could handle before I got a bit tired of it. I never miss a GaryEats video though. I just think his words have a bit more depth to them
Rate My Takeaway 🤣🤣🤣 only joking Gary
Neither am I. YOUR RIGHT. AND I LOVE FATE MY TAKE AWAY.
RateMyTakeAway is rubbish 😂
So good to see an independent restaurant being acknowledged world wide. Uncontaminated by celebrity nonsense and certainly not a tourist trap. What a wonderful city Edinburgh is too.
The presentation of each dish was simple yet pleasing on the eye. (They say you eat with your eyes). The key words here Gary are flavour, flavour, flavour ! Top drawer and a 10/10 from me. Dare I say, it's probably the best review on your channel to date..
You are completely right, Robert. It’s great that independent restaurants are getting recognised now. That is very kind to say thank you.
For me you are absolutely the number 1 content creator on YT. You could review anything from bog roll to super yachts- I’d watch it and enjoy every second
Cheers Gary !
It’s so kind to say thank you so very very much, Chris
Hello 🎉....coming ...... just getting a quick glass of red 😊
Nice 👍
Wow....that shank would definitely be my Final Meal 😅..... amazing!
This is what review channels should be about. This is exactly the type of business that deserves to be elevated. Good job on the review.
That’s very kind, thank you very much
That looked spectacular and the use of ramekins was a great aesthetic idea. I think it's fitting that the best restaurant should reside in the UK's most beautiful city. Thank you Gary !
Thank you very much for your comment
What a stunning review Gary! Oh my - those two meals looked gorgeous - and obviously tasted amazing! what a treat for you that was. A very well deserved top score!
Thank you very much, Carol x
A real pleasure to watch this video Gary. A joy to see you enjoy the wonderful food before you.
Thank you so very much as always
Last review it was a Glasgow “budget”meal this time an Edinburgh Award winning restaurant and how does Gary approach his reviews ,with the exact same non bias and enthusiasm and rating the food and establishments openly and honestly. Another enjoyable review.
That’s very kind thank you 🙏
Good honest food from good honest people. I spent a year in Edinburgh and enjoyed every minute of it. The Scots wouldn't know how to spell pretentious. That lamb had me drooling.
I agree with you completely 🏴🏴
That grub looked amazing Gary. ..I'm so jealous 😂
I understand completely
One of my favourite cities. I was there in 2016 and always said I would return. Another great review Gary. Thank you so much. The lamb and the chicken both looked delicious. Love the way you can choose the mash to compliment the main dish.
Glad you enjoyed it Susan. It's a beautiful city I must say
gary...10 star up here in scotland. glad to hear. spend more time up here. love your channel
I have and I will 🏴🏴
Everything that I saw on the menu looked delicious.
That lamb shank looked tasty. Great video Gary. Love how you critique every style, price and location of restaurants in your everyman way.
That is very kind to say thank you
As a proud Ulster Scot, I am envious. 1. You're in Scotland 2. You're in my home from home, Edinburgh. 3. You're eating what I probably would've chosen and loving it. Edinburgh has always had a great drinking and eating out scene and I'm very pleased to see you enjoying it so much. 😋
I have to say, Mike I was very, very lucky 🏴🏴🏴
I have to admit, this channel has grown on me and I never miss one now.
The go to for food reviews.
Thank you very much
Just looking at it, I could tell what your reaction was going to be, That looked HEARTY! Great Review!! Thanks Gary!
Thank you very much
What a great video Gary, that's my kind of food; sophisticated simplicity, delicious. 😘
Thank you so very much Vicky 🌹
It has to be a 10. Great news that the top restaurant in the UK is not pretentious.Thanks for the review Gary 💙
Thank you very much, Denise. I hope you’re keeping well. ❤️🌹
