As soon as I have access to proper internet rather than mobile internet I will.
well it's been a few hours, so you will what?
Apologise for
or, if in doubt, make it up and hope the people you're adopting a patronising and insulting approach to don't actually know how to use GoogleI'm afraid the "la la la, I can't hear you" approach to ignoring facts was out-ruled by the 1982 'Now now children' Act.
Idiot - are you at the same school as PaddedRudeFred?
I have family allegiances both sides of the border (unlike that plastic Scot who normally turns up in any thread remotely associated with Scotland)

I'm a picky food snob. And I'm scottish too.
Living in NZ i think i'm prety spoilt on quality food really so was quite interested to be back in Soctland 3 times last year and early this year and try out a few spots. We had dinner one night at the Peat Inn - was fantastic if not a little starchy in the service department. Also had tea at Applecross and it was superb as well. generally I found the level and wuality of food to be good esp. the Haggis Supper from the chippy in Granton which was a full haggis halfed and battered just like it used to be when i worked near there and of course chip sauce.
I've eaten in a few Michelin starred restaurants in my time and while incredibly good i'm not sure that most people would 'get' the food all the time. A simply cooked meal of quality local ingredients prepared by a good chef in my opinion is all you need. Dog c@ck ice cream qwith roasted fillet of cat litter for example may sound lovely but in all reality locally made ice cream with some fresh fruit would be almost as good. Anyway, get back to arguing about salmon. 😀
uplink - MemberAgree? Do the maths for me and show me the results to support any argument against this please.
No, I don't agree, they're about the same
Your Mayfair figure though was ~250% out
138 Michelin star restaurants in England - ~ 2.76 /million
13 Michelin star restaurants in Scotland - ~ 2.6 /million19 of the English restaurants are in Mayfair - ~14.4%
Well considering you omitted 5 in the count of scottish stars, I don't see any credibility in your maths either!
interestingly, from a continental point of view, sctotish cuisine is the less worst of the kingdom.
