Restaurant review - Red Fort Indian restaurant Edinburgh
Welcome to my blog, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
The Red Fort Indian restaurant is in Drummond Street, tel 0131 558 8014, a few minutes walk from Princes Street and the Royal Mile, close to the Festival Theatre and the National Museum in Chambers Street. The restaurant offers a buffet lunch for only £5.95 every day of the week from 12noon to 3pm. The price of £5.95 even includes a welcome soft drink. I had Sunday lunch there in April 2008. There was a choice of three starters, vegetable pakora, chick peas and chicken thighs with various sauces and salad. There were six main courses including lamb madras, chicken korma, lentil dahl and a vegetable mix accompanied by rice and nan bread. To finish there was either ice cream. of coffee.
I though that the buffet lunch offered excellent value for money. There was a reasonable selection of dishes and the food was of reasonable quality and tasty.
National Museum of Scotland, Chamber St So you can have a great cheap day out in Edinburgh, visit the National Museum of Scotland free of charge and a good lunch for £6. There’s lot to do and see, all free of charge, off the beaten track in Edinburgh.
