Edinburgh on Christmas day advice needed

[niccynoo66]

Thanks everyone , we don’t mind going further out , with either a taxi or we may hire a car for the six days we are there.

Will look into the Chinese , we open to any food type not just traditional.

It’s a shame the dome is covered with scaffolding , it looks so nice in the Christmas photos but maybe work will be finished in December.

Will have a look at the printing press too,

Thanks

If you like Chinese for Xmas dinner I can also highly recommend Cool Jade which is opposite the Zoo. Really excellent food. If you want to let me know what area you are staying in I might have some more suggestions.

Thanks ,

We are on George street in the principle hotel.

Sorry I missed that in your first post! The Principal is lovely and very central. You may find they offer a nice dinner package on Xmas day which might be worth considering if you don’t want to travel. I’ll have a look and see if any other good restaurants have confirmed if they are opening yet. X

Thanks again I will call the hotel and enquire about Xmas day , with all the trauma of losing my sister we are all a bit muddled and hadn’t even considered our own hotel

Can only begin to imagine the trauma, so very sorry for your loss. Please feel free to send me a personal message if you need any suggestions for other places to visit on your trip. X

If you have a car then highly recommend The Vu, out in West Lothian

Www.thevu

Primarily a wedding venue (where we got married! ) also opens for Christmas day dinner. We have been twice now, suberb setting delicious food. They 2 do settings in different parts of the venue at 1pm and 3pm. 4 courses for £50. They are already taking bookings as they phoned us asking if we wanted to return this year!
