🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Edinburgh | Noto 🍴 Cozy Izakaya

First meal in Edinburgh—a Michelin-recommended Japanese fusion izakaya! 🥂 Tucked away in a quiet alley, the unassuming entrance opens to a warm, candlelit space ✨. The menu changes seasonally and is quite compact. 🦀 【North Sea Crab】 Signature crab dip with bread 🍞—the crab broth is a tad salty, but the bread helps balance it (though you only get one small slice per person 😅). 🐂 【Beef Tartare】 Delicious raw beef with a tangy sauce (maybe balsamic?) and crispy potato strings for texture. Flavor = 👍, but the portion was shockingly small—just a tiny mound in a big bowl. 🥔 【Potato Udon】 Udon made from potatoes! Soft, starchy noodles with a slight earthy aftertaste. Perfect comfort food for chilly days ☺️. 🐟 【Confit Halibut】 Tender, juicy fish... but buried under a mountain of scallions (seriously, SO many 😨). Sadly, just okay flavor-wise. 💰 ~£50pp (we each had a drink too). #Edinburgh #EdinburghFood #MichelinEats #Scotland #UKFoodie
