Our head chef has been making Cullen Skink for three years now in Brea. He actually stayed in Cullen for three years too, so we like to think he makes one of the best around! It’s a rich and filling starter, packed full of flavour and also a very traditional Scottish dish. What better way to warm you up on a cold January night and fitting to remember James Watt too!
