As lockdown restrictions begin to ease, we asked Aeneas O'Hara to recommend various Scottish attractions in a regular video blog. Aeneas is one of our clients, and founder of awayfromtheordinary.com a bespoke luxury travel company focussed on delivering the best Scottish travel experiences.
Part One - Where to eat in Scotland
For the first of these insights, we asked Aeneas to name four places in Scotland where he cannot wait to eat again. Aeneas makes a living from finding the very best that Scotland has to offer, so these options should not be ignored.
Enjoy everyone!
Inver: Argyll
I love the inventiveness of the cooking and their cocktails. I love the distinctly Scottish location, the view is across the water to a ruined castle that you can easily walk to.

Loch Bay: Isle of Skye
The freshest Skye ingredients cooked with classic French touches. This is a Michelin starred restaurant with a lovely relaxed atmosphere and a warm welcome.

Mother India: Glasgow
For the best curries, with fluffy nans, in a lovely setting, go here. Just make sure you are sat upstairs at their Westminster Terrace restaurant for the full experience.

The Creel Seafood Bar: Isle of Mull
Getting the ferry from Mull to Iona? Then leave enough time to eat delicious seafood by the shore at this tiny shack. Try the crab sandwich!
