Indian - Noor in Newington is decent and do a decent set meal for 1 that is easily enough for two. Chinese - Taste of China probably the only decent Chinese I’ve had in a while. Kebab - Palmyra hands down. Pizza - Dough/Civerinos. Both on the pricey side but definitely worth it. Special mention goes to Taquito in Tollcross. The shouts for it being poor value for money are way off the mark. Regular burrito and a can of juice for a fiver. Bigger than BarBurrito/Bonnie etc as well. Chippies in Edinburgh are pish. Yet to find a decent chippy in Embra, city centre wise anyway. Interesting comment on Palmyra, have you tried Kebab mahal for a comparison? Rugster has been virtually stalking me on here for months waiting for me to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 One of our local ones has shut yet again, it's had at least 4 different makeovers and name changes in the 8 years we've lived here. This time it is opening up as Mexita, a blend of Mexican and Italian cuisine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't be living in Embra after July. The problem is when i'm pished i'll eat any kind of dog meat in a pita bread, so wandering down to Nicolson square isn't usually what transpires. I wish it could be a different way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kebab Mahal is best enjoyed sober, get there before you move or I'll fucking haunt you forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrcat1990 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Just moved southside so now no longer able to jump to Morrellos. Had to find a replacement and thankfully discovered the creatively named "Kurdish Street Food" who arguably served me one of the best shwarma wraps I've ever had. We good.

I now live a bit further west but after a few in my local have been known to spend £20 on a taxi from the pub to Morellos and home for a large chips, cheese and doner meat with sauce.

Aye the burgers are amazing, combine it with a visit to drygate on your way back into town and it makes the trip well worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
