The haggis was better than I thought it would be

[@starlight_74]

I couldn't imagine of the idea of eating a sheep's brain 🙈 Scotland most beautiful country 💙

[@willcambeul6172]

@@starlight_74 There is no brain in a haggis. It's a basis of sheep's liver, heart and lungs plus suet - usually mutton - and oatmeal. Plus onion and the butcher's choice of seasoning (many have their own 'secret' mix. Traditionally wrapped in a sheep's stomach (but today some commercial ones are in artificial casings).

It’s refreshing to see public areas without graffiti, here in the states most large cities are covered with unsightly graffiti! Love your channel!

Hope you manage to get to the UK and see some of our places for yourself soon!

[@CheshireCat6639]

Yes it is lovely to see no graffiti although choose your Cities as we do have some grot spots here as everywhere. 🇬🇧 York and Chester definitely nice Cities with loads of History 🎉

[@titteryenot4524]

Loads of the big European cities are covered in graffiti. Barcelona, Rome, Paris has lots. Edinburgh is slightly different. Yes, there _is_ graffiti, 6:31 , but this dude’s in the touristy Old Town and if it gets too out of hand and unsightly they jet spray it off. In a lot of the old wynds (alleys), don’t look too closely as you will see graffiti.

[@badgermations]

Edinburgh does have graffiti, unfortunately if you look in alleyways and behind shops there is graffiti everywhere

[@Dinki-Di]

That meal did indeed look delicious- and a beautiful walk around a picturesque city as well. Great video!

[@LindaOvenstone-hg3gl]

Haggis is really good served with champit tatties and tumshie/turnip,they gave him a mighty portion too,I would struggle eating that

[@richt71]

Surely it depends on time of booking of trains or planes. I flew to Portugal on Boxing day. The couple beside me said they booked 2 weeks before paying £620 each one way, I booked 6 months in advance at a cost of £80 return. I took a trip to Truro last September I booked 3 months in advance and paid £60 return. The lady next to me paid for a walk up standard ticket at £189!

[@DianeLittle-dd6ej]

Historically, when hunters made their kill, they would use up the offal, which went off first, using the cleaned animal’s stomach as a cooking bag not used today . haggis is Minced heart, liver and lungs are bulked out with oatmeal, onions, suet, seasoning and spices before cooking. Nowadays natural casings are still used not always , but synthetic ones are becoming more common (there is no effect on the flavour

Hello my friend lovely to see you as always, lovely venue & the meal was beautifully presented , pleased you enjoyed it. I've only had Haggis a few times but like it, I love travelling by rail but in comparison to other forms of transport is very expensive. Your recent trips abroad to do these reviews have been much more cost effective, looking forward to your upcoming videos thank you for sharing,take care 💜 XX

[@garyedward140]

Another fantastic video even though it was expensive. Great point about the fares. Surely train travel is more eco friendly too. I'm Scottish and I have to say myself my wife and our 3 children all prefer black pudding to haggis!

[@alexmcwhirter6611]

Re train fares. Sadly XC is regularly criticised for high fares and lack of capacity. There *can* be low train fares but it all depends on the route and the operator. I mean Lumo has great fares for London-Edinburgh (a much greater distance than Leeds-Edinburgh) as it competes directly with incumbent LNER.

[@garyedward140]

Great point 👍

[@LindaOvenstone-hg3gl]

We love both black pudding snd haggis except for the black pudding my husband got in A that had mint in it,that really wasn't good

The Stornoway Black Pudding though is the best

[@Xhenix]

Thoroughly enjoy this channel. Always love it when I see one of your vids blow up too.

[@everydayimeating3407]

You and me both!

[@P5YcHoKiLLa]

I would definitely recommend a haggis and bacon roll with a dash of brown sauce for a morning snack. You can buy haggis in sausage form similar to black pudding which can be sliced and fried.

[@LindaOvenstone-hg3gl]

Yeah that sounds good,a fried egg and black pudding and broom sauce on a roll is good too,make sure you have some napkins😂

[@fabianmckenna8197]

Wow........ That was an enormous portion of haggis, neeps 'n tatties and looked fantastic with the whisky sauce. Delicious.

[@martinjjennings]

It is interesting how much it can cost to travel by train on the day. It can work out a lot cheaper to fly by plain or get the train ticket in advance a few days before travel. Coach is better value. I have enjoyed your short trips and have encountered the same problems you have had with delays and knowing the way to get to places. Weatherspoons does a good Haggis meal in January across the country for Burns Night they do for a few weeks.

[@everydayimeating3407]

Should I do a coach trip somewhere?

[@martinjjennings]

@@everydayimeating3407 Yes, I have seen a few KZbinrs do coach trips. Even to places in Europe. Megabus is cheap as well you could go to Edinburgh and back for £30 I go from Portsmouth to Birmingham for £20 and less sometimes.

The needs ARE mashed turnips. Not sure about the UK , but here in Ireland, we have belied or steamed carrots and parsnips, and they often have mashed turnip mixed in. Very delicious 😋

[@BrapMan]

Yep I am a Scottish blooded Scouser and our family have mashed potato, as well as mashed carrot and turnip (which is called "clapshot" in Scotland). Of course in southern England they call turnips swedes, as down there they have always been able to grow the wee purple and white Continental turnips, wereas we only had the tougher Swedish veriety of turnip, or rutabaga if you are from the USA. Who knew the simple turnip could be so confusing, eh

70 year old Mex-American checking in. 7:38 I started to chuckle when you got closer to the menu! Everywhere in the world baby... Anyway, when I young man in his 20's I had a month-long girlfriend from a village just outside of Edinburgh, I don't recall the name. She was in the U.S. on business for Burmah Oil. I think they are defunct now. She made me Haggis a couple of times. I loved it. It looked different than the way it was served to you in the restaurant. It was more rounded and it had potato slices all around the Haggis. OK, I'm going to check out the rest of your vids. I enjoyed this one.

[@martinquinn9007]

When did you book train if last minute thats why book earlier

[@24magiccarrot]

The reason the trip abroad is cheaper than the trip to within the UK is the Plane ticket is probably subsided by the government of the country you are traveling to. If you want a UK equivalent get the train to Blackpool. The Blackpool council subsidises the cost of trains there making it one of the cheapest places to get a train to. The idea being get people there as cheaply as possible and you'll reap the rewards by having the tourists spend money once they get there.

[@borusa32]

Takes me back many many years ago to my honeymoon when I had haggis and glenfiddich -pretty good combo-not overly keen on the Haggis I am afraid.

Travel pricing comment: At least the train took you into the city. I am assuming now having travelled to Scotland before you would have to factor in either car gas and parking or taxi/uber fare both from home to airport and airport to city where the restaurant is located. Probably comes to the same pricing, I’d think??

INFRASTRUCTURE.....that's the answer!

Need to try a haggis after watching your experience 😊

Had the haggis in that place which was excellent and considering it's in Edinburgh the price is fair enough but the train ticket shows what a rip off country we now live in.

Hello and thanks for another great video. As for comparing rail fares with air fares I must say that both modes have different pricing models. Air (Ryanair for example) will have low fares provided you book well ahead and are savvy enough to avoid the ancillary fees ! Rail doesn't have such a sophisticated pricing model and although the gov't (which is responsible for the fares - although few people realise this fact) wants to change things, nothing will happen for some time owing to the election. Even then if there's a change of gov't, rail is not the most urgent thing to be changed ... transport in the UK is well down the list of priorities of any gov't. Your train trip to Edinburgh would have cost less had you changed at York and taken LNER. Check Trainline, which offers split fares, and based on early morning Leeds-Edinburgh for Tuesday May 28 with a mid-afternoon return would cost around £100. Yes that is not cheap but then look at what Ryanair charges for Leeds-Dublin return on the same day (May 28). Right now I checked its website and the Ryanair basic price (not including the extras) is £365 !

[@Islandicus]

Travelling by train in the UK is a luxury now. If you book online for a cheaper ticket then there are usually all kinds of restrictions. Buying a ticket at a station is prohibitive and you get charged the full price. Privatisation brought few benefits for the average traveller and the only alternative is to book a plane or go by coach.
