Yotam Ottolenghi to open first Scottish restaurant this autumn

Yotam Ottolenghi is heading to Scotland for the first time.

The revered chef will open his second restaurant outside of London on Edinburgh’s George Street this autumn.

Overseen by Scottish-born executive head chef Neil John Campbell, who has been with the group for the best part of a decade, the new restaurant will bring Ottolenghi’s bold, vegetable-forward cooking to the heart of Edinburgh, celebrating Scotland’s finest local produce through the brand’s vibrant, flavour-driven style.

Yotam Ottolenghi, chef and founder of Ottolenghi said: “We’ve been dreaming about opening in Edinburgh for years, at last the time is right. The city has a brilliant dining culture and access to incredible local produce - fish, seafood, and beautiful vegetables from across Scotland. Neil, our executive chef, is from here, so it’s made the whole thing feel special from the very beginning”

Further details regarding the menu, design, and opening date will be announced later this year.
