Number one restaurant in the country!

It’s such an honour to have anyone spend this much time thinking about what you do, and to really see all the detail, and appreciate the intentionality in all we do (and don’t do).

Restaurant cooking- in fact, any creative act I’d say- is never about one person or a solo hero vision. We’re all influenced by everything and everyone around us, and we’re all the richer when we see and acknowledge that too. Rob and I are so lucky to have so many skilled and committed people contributing to @inverrestaurant - from fellow chefs in the kitchen and storytelling servers out front; to the growers, farmers and catchers of vegetables, shellfish, game and meat animals, to those folks making and finding the good stuff for us to pour.

Delighted to be sharing such an illustrious list with so many good friends and great colleagues! What a country we make.

So much gratitude to @chitgrrlwriter and @thetimes for seeing it all, from us all.

🙏🏻♥️

Postcard from Edinburgh, where it’s cool enough for scotch eggs to stay in the window until the morning crowd comes along to scoop them up.

Day 14/30 of ‘Where I’d take my [???] friend visiting Edinburgh’

Today: The Food Critic Friend. Self professed of course, unless anyone is friends with @gracedent

Lunch: Timberyard @timberyard10
I won’t lie, this reel is basically a love letter to Timberyard (and their resident forager and drinks-smith @anna.sebelova ). Even the name along conjures up visions of earthy, romantic, thoughtful work. It’s a masterpiece of a dining experience.

Dinner: Lyla @lylaedinburgh
The clean, delicate, (apparently) wonderful dining experience serving the best of Scottish seafood. Sounds utterly glorious.

Cocktail: Panda and Sons @pandaandsons
A speakeasy under a barbershop: playful, friendly, but sensationally good cocktails.

Stay tuned for tomorrow’s episode: Where I’d take my pregnant friend visiting Edinburgh…

Earlier this month, we welcomed Michelin-starred chef and co-owner @kazutoshi.endo into the IGNI kitchen for the second dinner in our At The Pass series. Cooking alongside Executive Chef @cheftheoclench, the two chefs created an exclusive multi-course tasting menu, combining the very best seasonal produce and distinctive coastal influences with the mastery and precision of Japanese culinary technique paired with @ruinart.

The series began in July with Jean Delport of @interludesussex, and continues in October with Stuart Ralston of LYLA.

Reserve your place for final collaboration of this year via the link in bio.

A lovely moment for LYLA, awarded a coveted MICHELIN Key. 🗝️
This is a particularly special one for us at Scarinish.
We had the pleasure of working alongside Stuart Ralston, Jade Johnston and the team to create the interiors for LYLA — a project we loved from the very beginning.
Working within such a beautiful old Edinburgh townhouse, the aim was always to create something that felt calm, warm and understated, while letting the original character of the building come through.
To now see LYLA recognised in this way is a fantastic achievement for everyone involved.
Huge congratulations to Stuart, Jade and the whole LYLA team. It’s been a real pleasure to be part of LYLA’s journey. .

The Drinks Business Wine List of Week:Lyla

Lyla’s cellar feels neither boastful nor bashful: grand where it should be, mischievous where it can be and, above all, coherent.

Ralston cooks with uncommon finesse; Stuart Skea answers with equal intelligence, each course gaining from the other.

Wine and food dissolve into one another until separating them feels almost impossible.

Experience 100/100

TRES VEG IS BACK !
Twenty years ago, Chef Rob and Chef Stuart Ralston were young cooks in New York, working together at the two-Michelin-starred Gordon Ramsay at The London. As luck would have it, they were also roommates, sharing a small apartment and experiencing New York together at the beginning of their careers. Those years were formative, both in and out of the kitchen, and a lasting friendship was born.
Now, two decades later, they’re finally back in the kitchen together.
Stuart is coming to Washington from Edinburgh’s acclaimed LYLA, his intimate, seafood-focused restaurant in a beautifully restored Georgian townhouse overlooking the Firth of Forth. LYLA earned its first @michelinguide Star in 2025 and was named Best Restaurant in Scotland by the National Restaurant Awards. Its tasting menu celebrates exceptional Scottish produce, sustainable fish/shellfish, and the seasons.
For two special nights at Oyster Oyster, Scotland meets DC as Rob and Stuart reunite to cook together for the first time since their New York days.
Two former roommates. Two chefs. Two decades of friendship. Two unforgettable nights.
Reservations for this very veg evening go live 9/18/26 at 12pm via @resy
