    FUN FACT ... The Dome. Originally the site of the old Physicians Hall (1775) built by James Craig (1744-95) and demolished to make way for the current building (1847), The Dome was built as the head office of the Commercial Bank of Scotland.

    Glad you made it to The Dome Gary, it is one of the most spectacular venues in the UK and the value for money is incredible given the quality of the food and service. Imagine what a meal like that would cost you in London at a comparable venue. The Dome is so accessible because you don't have to be especially wealthy to go and enjoy what it has to offer. I go there regularly for drinks when I'm meeting friends in Edinburgh and have eaten there on many occasions. They also do a more informal bar food menu in the bar area so you can get a superb chicken burger and chips for around 15 quid if you are having a few pints with friends. The building used to be a bank hence its grandeur , it opened as The Dome in 1996.

    Awesome a new video from Gary on my birthday.
    I see so many comments are about that people's lives, because they want to tell you so I'll tell you about my day.
    Pretty cool birthday lunch out - 7 people, 4 generations - ranging from turning 1 in 3 weeks to 93.
    Pretty special having my grandfather still around and he drove us all home after he only had 1.
    Even more special, my first birthday as a father. Never really cared about having a kid, but now that he's here the last 49 weeks have been amazing.

    As I cook my pasta with lentil and tomato sauce I relish seeing you enjoying your meal and rejoice with you at finding the best place ever. You love what you do and we love spending time with you. I think that one thing about these reviews is that you probably become the dining companion of a considerable number of people who live alone and otherwise might not hear a human voice as they eat. Being a disabled person I do manage to get out, thank God, but there are still a lot of us who cannot, or who, like me, find the loneliness of the night a bit hard to take. So glad you loved doing this one - are you sure you wouldn't prefer a Taco Bell or a Gordon Ramsay "carry-oot"?

On turkey, parsnips all around. We'll ask Gary if he's happy. He'll have reply quite snappy. Later on, he enjoys a delicious dessert. With chocolate and raspberry so pert.
