[@24magiccarrot]

Regarding tipping in a bar, in Scotland, if you are going out for a night of drinking we do a thing where we don't tip all night until the last drink you buy of the night, and we'll say to the bar staff "and get one for yourself", now this doesn't mean that the bar staff buys a shot of whisky and downs it, what they do is they take a cash amount from your change equal to the cost of one drink. Over the course of a night's drinking, it effectively works out at a 5-10% tip depending on how much you drink.

[@maddcowcompany]

Scottish tap water - it's free! And it's amazing, don't listen to Mark.

[@TMAItalia]

Marc .Jameson Marc, I totally agree, The water is amazing. I started my travel channel Because I want to help people travel smarter.

I know from experience visiting Elgin in the north of Scotland in the 1970s that the water is excellent. The first time I tried it I overdosed on water because it tasted so good. It helps explain things to note that this is near where many of the whisky distilleries are located.

Thank you for giving venison a passing mention! Don't forget to try pheasant, partridge, mallard, snipe and woodcock as well. It's important that the gravy is made from the natural meat juices from the roasting, and not synthetic gravy out of a packet. If you visit Aberdeenshire, you need to try butteries/rowies

[@RussWWFC]

I'm English and I love Scottish food - you might get a better respoonse if you ask for a Scotch Pie as opposed to a Scottish one, they have a different type of pastry. Haggis is marvellous, best deep fried from the chippy. Square (or Lorne) Sausages are great too. And wash it down with plenty of Irn Bru, great drink

Yup, Scotch pies (sometimes called mince pies . Don't ask for a mince pie in England lest you get a pie with mince in it ) use a cold water pastry and are filled with an oatmealy stuff. Never heard of Scottish pies, though I suspect the wee counter lassie will know what you mean.

If you want to combine some Scottish beer and food for not a lot of money, The Beer Kitchen on Lothian Road in Edinburgh is worth it. Within the Scottish craft beer scene Innis & Gunn isn't highly regarded but I do like their Beer Kitchens. Best breakfast item you missed off was lorne sausage or square sausage, in particular the beef one. Far better than link, a bread roll with square, tattie scone and brown sauce with a can of Irn Bru will sort you out. No one will say 'Scottish pie', it's a Scotch pie (might seem like a subtle difference), they're mutton based and you can get some pretty horrible dry ones but worth trying from a baker or butcher hot. Sticky toffee pudding is a standard and is good, but you should also make a point of trying cranachan.

[@oggie1967]

Nice work Mark, I’m a master butcher with a shop in Aberdeenshire and we make all of our own haggis, black pudding, white puddings etc by hand & they are all still very popular! Have to get you to try some of our potted head sometime!👍😊

[@oggie1967]

Ian Leishman I still make it but it’s potted meat now since the BSE thing! It’s just boiling beef cooked down till it falls to bits, salt, pepper, beef bouillon, water & some gelatin to set it! Bash up the beef with a spud masher and add back to the liquid and stir & decant into tubs to cool! My granny came from Fife & she made potted Hough using shin of beef & a marrow bone to set it!

Scotland is up there with Switzerland for outstanding natural water quality and taste! Seafood and game are where it's at with top end Scottish cuisine. Our Venison, Grouse and Pheasant! Amazing! Our salmon is outstanding - our scallops, mussels and oysters are also unbeatable! We also have loads of different types of edible mushrooms that taste wonderful. Oh, and Aberdeen angus beef! And yes, Haggis is delicious! For fast food, yeh we deep fry alot of stuff. The best pies, in my opinion - your scotch pie is usually mutton mince - I like a mince and skirlie pie with toasted oatmeal on the top of the mince. Forfar Bridies are a must - Abroath smokies (smoked kippers) are delicious. And then there's Stovies! Stovies are great! :P As for tipping? I'd say 10% is the base tip for standard service. 15% for good service and 20% if it's really good. Glasgow, go anywhere in the west end and you'll probably be good! Ashton lane and places near Kelvingrove park. I'd say Glasgow and Perth are your real 'foodie' cities (I live in Perth, theres only about 40,000 in the city, and just off the top of my head we have Dean's, Café Tabou, Café Breizh and Cardos - Perth seems to do French, medditeranian or contemporary scottish). Rocpool, in Inverness is a must visit. The Loch fyne Oyster bar, near Inveraray on the road to Oban . . . The Ubiquitous chip in Glasgow, any of the restaurants at gleneagles . . .

I may be wrong, but it seems like you've never visited my neck of the woods, Galloway. Its an oversight lots of tourists make, so intent on getting to Edinburgh/Glasgow, or the Highlands, and end up missing some of the best Scotland has to offer: history, castles, scenery, beaches, small, pretty market towns, and the 2 Roberts, Bruce and Burns. Next time you're over, give it a shot, I can give some suggestions if you want. Second, language. You said in one of your videos "are they speaking English? Yes, but..." Not entirely correct I'm afraid. Scotland has 3 languages - Gaelic and English you know, obviously, but what about Scots? Sharing linguistic roots with English it is often written off as a dialect but is actually a language all of its own, albeit becoming more anglicised in these days of globalisation. I am a native Scots speaker, punished at school for not speaking English, as was the norm back then. It can be hard sometimes, to tell the difference, except if you get 2 Scots speakers talking to each other, THEN you can tell. Anyhow, just thought I'd fill you in a bit. Take care, stay safe, and if I can give any more info, just ask. Lang may yir lum reek
