An Arbroath Smokie (smoked haddock) especially if you actually buy it in Arbroath. There are many small businesses in the town preparing smoked fish and the quality is far ahead of what can be bought from retailers. Lots of other smoked fish available but  nothing to compare with the haddock,in my opinion.



Heading for Dundee today may make the extra trip.

My theory on Scottish cuisine is, it is based on a dare.

Theory is wrong Tink

Our salmon is renowned as the best.
Smokeys --the same
Trout --delicious
Farmed stuff is a joke
So is Haggis or is it an acquired taste????

I'm not talking about your Salmon or Beef, Im talking tradional dishes like Haggis, that must have been a dare.

You would need to dare me to eat it ;)

I reckon if you did a survey on haggis there would be more tourists than Scots eating it.

Hubby keeps moaning that we don't eat enough fish so tonight we are having sea bass with bulgar pilaff. This is all in honour of having just come back from fethiye. Not a cheap meal though just for the 3 beefsteak tomatoes for the sauce it cost me £1.50- that would buy me a kilo in the fruit and veg market on a Friday. Gutted to be home but tonight we will be pretending to be back with the meal, Tarkan on the stereo and a bottle of Kaya red wine given to us by a friend whilst out there who said it was the very best. Trouble is I will still wake up in Northampton tomorrow morning!

Talk about one mans meat (or fish) !  I think I would rather eat my own arm than eat Salmon, the taste makes me want to heave . My wife Cavfan loves it and I cook it for her and have some lovely recipes for it, but eat it? Ugh never  ;)
