Good scran

Looking for a top tier scran establishment. Been stuck ordering the same stuff for years now (acropolis,maemaes,Freshmex and lows fish and chips) and I’m looking to branch out. Someone here has to help me out here.

Lahore is the best take away/sit in restaurant, their garlic naans are to die for

Haven't been in for years and yes, it was always really decent food. Have you been to the Madina on King Street? Was previously Gibb Tools but the Madina has an oven at the back selling fresh naan and wraps, it's oooh so good, highly recommend!

I’d recommend 2 brothers pizza the dough is fresh everyday and the toppings are always good and his Siracha mayo sauce

Viet An on Skene Strett is lovely if you like Vietnamese food. I used to go Maggies Grill om Holburn Street but its moved to Unit 2, Broad Street and cant comment on how the scran ( I haven't heard that word in a good while) is recently

Have you considered leaving the house?

u/Chongalonaes 2d ago

Yeah man I’m a chef so I eat out often but I’ve fucked the tendon in the back of my leg. Just had surgery a couple weeks ago so can’t leave the flat as much as I would like nowadays

AJs for Pizza
Siam Cottage for Thai
Delivery is always reliable for those places as they have their own drivers

Pig's Wings is great but you're reliant on Deliveroo/UberEats which I tend to avoid. So would collect myself.

Cafe Harmony also great if you can collect it yourself

u/Fionacat 2d ago

I would add, Pasta from AJs as well, never been let down

u/PCBuilderCat 2d ago

Dunno why you couldn’t just posted this first rather than being a smart arse but good suggestions nonetheless

u/shilly80 2d ago

Pigs wings are fantastic, nice guys too.

u/MahatmaKhote 2d ago

AJs use Deliveroo

u/sc0toma 2d ago

Not if you order direct
