Cheap and delicious Thai food. I have a feeling it is cash only, but they might have changed that. It's usually very busy, so if you don't want to wait for a table, try Tapame next door.

Wonderful views of the city. A must do in Edinburgh - as long as it's not too windy!
Arthur's Seat is an extinct volcano and the main peak of the group of hills in Edinburgh which form most of Holyrood Park,. It was described by Robert Louis Stevenson as "a hill for magnitude, a mountain in virtue of its bold design".
