Aloha! Today I've got a little post about a new Mexican restaurant which has opened up in Edinburgh, called Pinto. I absolutely love Mexican food and this place lived up to all my expectations! And want to know the best thing? It's really affordable! They do an amazing deal where you get any meal, with 2 margaritas or 2 bottled beers for just £10. Bargain or what? 

I had the Baracoa Beef Burrito which was so tasty! They manage to pack your choice of filling, rice, pinto beans, salsa (you choose the spice level), cheese and sour cream into this wrap! It is really filling and even better washed down with a few margaritas! 

I can definitely see me being a regular customer here! And if you don't live in Edinburgh don't worry! They have 3 branches in Glasgow too! 

If you decide you fancy a little tipple after your meal, you can head right across the road to a little bar called Heads & Tales. As you can see below, you can pick your gin, flavour and glass size and they make it into an amazing cocktail! 

I went for Caorunn Gin, Grape flavour and a Highball glass and this was the result! It was delicious! If you are looking for a good cocktail bar in Edinburgh, I highly recommend this place!

Style Diary: Pick up a penguin!

Hello everyone! Yes I know the title of this post is super cheesy, but it's Christmas after all! On Monday, myself and all my uni friends went out to for our christmas lunch! Of course christmas jumpers were required, so here is what I wore!

Penguin Jumper- £12 Primark

Jeggings- £17.99 New Look

Knee High Boots- Old (they were about £9 in the Internationale Sale about 3 years ago)

I just love this jumper! I normally find jumpers to be very unflattering for my shape but this one is not like that at all! I've got a few more christmas events coming up in the next week, so I will definitely be breaking this jumper out again! It might even make an appearance on Christmas Day! 

Here we all are in our jumpers! Photo courtesy of the Granary Leith Facebook page! 

Don't we all look so cool?

FoodieFriday: The Granary, Edinburgh

Aloha Everyone. Last Thursday I visited The Granary in Leith, Edinburgh! My other half and I went there to sample their Christmas menu, and on arrival were given a tasty glass of mulled wine! We had some canapés, which were like little tasters of the Christmas menu! They were all very tasty, so tasty in fact that we decided to book a table for our Uni christmas lunch!

After we had finished our mulled wine, we headed downstairs to the main restaurant to have dinner. They had some fabulous promotions on as it was midweek, so I got a raspberry mojito for only £3.95! 

For my main meal I had mac & cheese with garlic bread. It was absolutely delicious and only £7.95! I'd even go as far as saying it was the best mac & cheese I've had! 

And of course I had to get pudding (me and my sweet tooth!) I had tablet ice cream sundae which was also delicious! Tablet is my favourite sweet so combine it with ice cream and you have got a very happy Katie! 

Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to the Granary if you are ever in Edinburgh! It is in a beautiful setting, right on the shore and is very pretty inside! It is also very reasonably priced and the food is just delicious. I will definitely be making more than a few more visits here!
