Private Chef with Heart and Soul is a Tasting Scotland ‘Local Legend’
Watching it all slip away
This week we've been paying tribute to those in Scotland who have done something a little special when the onset of the Covid-19 Pandemic began. When lock-down was announced today's winner should have been gearing up to board a plane. He should have been heading out to the United States to promote Scottish Seafood. Instead he sat and watched his diary empty faster than he can chop a kilo of onions - and that's fast. Today's Tasting Scotland Gourmet Journeys & Events #ScotFoodFort20 'Local Legend' crown goes to award-winning Private Chef Mark Heirs.

Celebrating World Food Travel Day in Scotland – What to eat on the Isle of Skye
It’s World Food Travel Day! Step on-board this virtual food and drink memory trip around Scotland. In Location No. 2, we journey up to the Isle of Skye, and uncover local Chef Calum Montgomery's 'what you must eat' when on his home island.

Big Tastes indeed in Scotland in Minature
On the Isle of Arran, just an hour’s ferry trip from the Scottish mainland, they promise ‘big tastes from a small island’. Based on our latest 2-night food safari we certainly wouldn’t argue with their bold statement.
Arran has been said to come with a health warning. Visitors can be expected to suffer quickly from Arranitis. This condition starts with warm, feel-good feelings once arriving on Scotland’s 7th largest island and develops into full-blown euphoria! Arran is a stunning island with wonderful people, fabulous food & drink and we would suggest it is absolutely well worth taking the risk.
Many of Scotland’s top chefs use ...
