After a lot of research he sourced a plant based burger patty that he's convinced even meat eaters will enjoy.
Lazy Lettuce has built up a core following through weekly pop ups at the Well café at Nicolson Square, Bijou Bistro by Leith Links and the Leith walk policebox.

"This is why we set out to provide vegan meat-alternatives for vegans, vegetarians and meat-eaters alike.
"We have had great reception to our weekly pop-up venue and we hope we can take our offering to the next step by having a more permanent fixture in the meadows. We encourage everyone, meat-eaters and vegans and vegetarians alike to take the taste challenge!"
Lazy Lettuce will initially be open on Saturdays and Sundays from 11.30am to 2.30pm.
