Actress Emily Atack brands Leith restaurant her ‘fave ever’ after weekend visit

The Inbetweeners star posted a picture of herself enjoying a meal at Tom Kitchin’s award-winning Leith eaterie just days after the celebrity chef suggested she might want to visit on her trip to the Capital.

Days after she took to Twitter to ask for Edinburgh’s best restaurants, Emily Atack has posted a picture of herself enjoying a meal at The Kitchin on Commercial Quay in Leith.

Among those who offered tips to the Inbetweeners star was local restaurateur Tom Kitchin, who, unsurprisingly, recommended his own award-winning restaurant.

Replying to Emily's post, Tom wrote: “Drop me a line if I can help. Cheers.”

And it seems the popular Edinburgh restaurant ticked all the right boxes with Emily.

Following her visit, she wrote on Twitter: “Dear my fav restaurant EVER @TheKitchin.. thank for you for such a special evening. Really quite wonderful.”
