Perceptions : Recipes from Restaurant Mark Greenaway
Sadly Mark is now closing his restaurant on the corner of Queen Street and Castle Street but that doesn’t mean that his cooking will stop and we are sure that he will have a new venture up his sleeve soon.
Featuring recipes that defy the often misrepresented reputation of Scottish cuisine, the philosophy behind the book is to challenge the perception of Scottish food forever by championing the world-class array of Scottish produce through fresh eyes, new techniques and beautiful recipes for the discerning cook. Celebrating the finest ingredients across Scotland, from Hebridean Sea Salt to Katy Rodger’s Artisan Dairy in the Ochils, the book includes modern twists on traditional dining stalwarts, to the fun and frivolous with his renowned dessert recipes featuring cherry laces, gels and meringues.
