Edinburgh restaurant Contini bringing Burns supper to residents' homes

One of the city’s top Italian restaurants is working to keep local traditions alive this year in spite of lockdown restrictions with a virtual Burns supper.

Contini, unable to host their annual Burns supper this year, are bringing the classic dishes to people's homes

Instead of meeting for the festivities in person this January, Edinburgh restaurant chain Contini are instead offering a Burns Zoom Party supper for £30 per person.

The delivery includes smoked salmon to start, classic haggis, neeps and tatties, plus traditional cranachan for dessert and a nip of Glengoyne 10 year old single malt Scotch Whisky and is available to order for delivery or collection from the George Street restaurant between January 20 and 23.

Also included in their ‘at Home’ range are classic Italian dishes produced with fine and fresh ingredients.

At the moment, any Wednesday order over £65 will receive a complimentary bottle of Victor Contini’s Vino throughout January.

Those interested in purchasing the Burns supper or other dishes from the range should visit the Contini website.
