After a decade at the forefront of the Edinburgh dining scene working under Tom Kitchin, Roberta Hall-McCarron and husband Shaun opened their first venue together. Now, with flagship The Little Chartroom, sister restaurant Eleanore, and wine bar Ardfern, they run a culinary mini-empire in the Scottish capital’s quiet outpost of Leith.

You may also know Roberta and her exceptional food from her two appearances on Great British Menu. We are extremely pleased to bring you The Changing Tides, Roberta’s first cookbook, on publication day. With well over a hundred recipes, the book reflects the chef, with fuss-free, modern, Scottish influenced dishes that you will want to eat.

As Roberta says, they ‘don’t do pretentious’. Try Smoked Mackerel Paté with Pickles and Treacle Soda Bread, or this Cured Sea Trout with Apple. And who could resist a slice of Apple and Ginger Loaf. Happy publication day Roberta!
