An industrial revolution in eating out…

Pop-up restaurants – places where food is served briefly, often for one night only – appear in some unusual places but I think it’s fair to say an industrial estate in Leith is a first. The concept is rather similar to inviting friends for dinner except you don’t know any of them and they don’t [...]...

From Krakow to the Tatra Mountains

Having recently landed in Edinburgh after a lengthy tenure in London and a two year stint in Glasgow, I was fascinated to find my locale in Abbeyhill was a bit of a Little Poland – 7 fryzjers (hairdressers/barbers), numerous delicatessens (including a White Eagle) and various coffee shops were in the immediate vicinity.

The 360 Degree Deal

There’s a wider range of music available to listeners than ever before, yet the most successful lacks variety and originality; it’s now easier than ever for people to record their own music and then share/sell it to the wider world, but [...]...

Leither in London – 94

When his message dropped into my inbox on facebook, I swear my heart stopped. It had been seven years since we’d actually exchanged any words, seven years since I told him I couldn’t keep doing whatever it was we were doing and I couldn’t just be his friend. I think at the time, I thought [...]...
