"A couple of months ago, the Hotel du Vin chain launched Sunday brunch. Forget everything you know about brunch: Hotel du Vin’s offering is something else. We’re not talking a stack of American pancakes with syrup and blueberries, or even eggs Florentine. We’re talking four courses of fabulous food. At £19.95, it’s also fabulous value. Update, August 2013: the price has increased to £24.95, but that’s still good value for four courses. I was fortunate enough to be invited to the chef’s table one Sunday to take a spot of brunch with Michael Musgrave and Martin Barnovsky of Hotel du Vin, Edinburgh. It wasn’t just me: Katey from Edinburgh Eats and a friend were there too, and I had C. to escort me. The chef’s table is in a snug, just off the main dining room, and has a fish-bowl view of the kitchen. It’s an interesting view although I sometimes felt sorry for the chefs when we all turned to the window to gaze at what was happening in there. Hotel du Vin’s brunch is a slow, leisurely affair, a relaxed afternoon of eating and chatting. The four courses are: Soup The soup is usually vegetarian and the one we had was seasonal vegetable and came sprinkled with parsley and olive oil. It was warming and fresh, and just whetted my appetite. In preparation for a big lunch I’d had an apple and a glass of grapefruit juice for breakfast. Come one o’clock I was ready to eat. I was hungry. The soup woke my taste buds gently and made my stomach rumble. I’m surprised that we all managed to eat all four courses. C. probably had the smallest buffet place since he was bread and veg only, but the rest of us tried hard not to eat so much that we fainted. It took self-control. French Market Buffet I’d cheerfully charge the entire cover price of £19.95 for the buffet. With a collection of breads, cold cuts and sea food, it’s the closest thing to a smörgåsbord I’ve seen outside of Sweden. What’s on it will vary with the seasons but we had prawns (shelled, and unshelled), oysters, dressed crab, cold and hot smoked salmon, potted shrimp, clams, mussels, salami, parma ham on the bone, mushroom paté, chicken liver paté, baguette, croisants, bagel, and all kinds of sauces and pickles. I’m probably selling the non-fish part of the spread a little short: I saw the crab and oysters and stampeded past the charcuterie. You can visit the buffet more than once. We didn’t because we all figured that doing so would dampen our appetite for the main. Main Choose from beef or chicken roast with all the trimmings, catch du jour, burger, omelette Arnold Bennet (smoked haddock and cheese), steak frites, tomato risotto and other filling, comforting dishes. At the table we also had the chicken roast, with puffy yorkies and roast veg, and the burger. It was cooked to perfection and oozing with cheese. It came with a poke of frites and looked absolutely lovely. I think my catch du jour – a plaice, entire, gently fried and served with watercress and lemon – was probably the lightest option. It was delicious. A squeeze of lemon, a scrape with a knife, and it was perfect. I had some of the broccoli that came with the roast as a token green, but the plaice didn’t need anything but was great as it was. C. had the tomato and olive risotto which hearty and full of tomato goodness Pudding The deserts are classics: trifle, créme brulé, rhubarb crumble and cheese board are all on offer, as well as crumble, profiteroles and an ice cream coupe. Despite being in my twenties the first time I met a trifle, I enjoy the nostalgia of this particularly British dish. The Hotel du Vin version comes with crystal clear red jelly with a distinct sherry hit to it hiding under layers of cream and custard. It was big and I’m very proud of myself for finishing all of it."

in the other night had a nice dinner with workmates. the food was delicious and the service during the meal was good. I ordered the pancetta and kartoffels to begin, then had a filet steak that I must say was one of the best steaks I have eaten so far.

I recently had a great dinner at Edinburgh's Hotel du Vin, which turned up a few surprises. Firstly, the place was absolutely heaving on this particular Friday night. Now, I know that Fridays are always busy, but techinically-speaking, this IS a hotel res

I just want to say.. I was in heaven here. Service was impeccable but the atmosphere was .. Just unbelievable. So beautiful, dim lit, soft music, amazing decor.. And the food.. Wow wow wow.. There was not a fault at all. Even the bread was gorgeous! My ultimate hideaway for that one off occasion.. To know it is just that special.

fantastic lunch here on holy evening. I had the fig and stylton galette starter, butternut gerste risotto main and profiterole desert. Eat and service were error-free and I only gave 4.5 not 5 because it was very expensive. £110 for lunch for 2! three courses with coffee 2 softdrinks 2 beer and 3 page orders. definitely worth a visit if you want to wash yourself and have a really great lunch!

I've been to the bistro hotel du vin a few times, and I have to say that they're just getting better and better. her spring/summer menu is by far the most beautiful thing I tried and the service is on point. the menu "prix fixe" is full of joy, so join me as I take you through the menu. 2 courses for £19.95 or 3 courses for £24.95 means they will change a lot to enjoy some of their fabulous wee.

valentinstag was back here and we wanted to go somewhere half decent for dinner. last summer we were in the hotel du vin in harrogate and thought it was nice. Since then we had it in our heads to eat the edinburghers. we skipped the appetizers and instead ordered a bread basket that was a nice selection of freshly baked breads. we both had the 'hdw rindfleischburger with speck and cheese, served with pommes frites and homemade tomaten ketchup ' for net. looks good on the photo? yes, it was good, very good. Unfortunately and extremely unlikely for me I had not appetit much in the night, so I had to leave the largest part of it. such a shame, but more of a reason to dinate here again! appetite...
