We’re around half way through the festival and it can sometimes feel like a month long holiday. It seems ok to go out for a drink or pick up some local street food any night of the week. We’re a little bit spoilt for choice with the abundance of pop up bars and food places.
We got to experience a few of our favourites at Summerhall. Rost for their mean courgette fritter amongst many other delights. We’re sure you’ve ‘Aaahhh’d’ at the cutest little grey van Florence, selling none other than Creme Brulee. It’s a treat and ‘burnt to order’.
Let’s not forget the onsite gin by Pickerings; served from a supercool Airstream Camper.
Standing in line for our G&T’s
With all the delightful food and drink on offer; we’ve picked out a selection of our favourite food and drink inspired works to tempt you in this weeks #fridayfavourites.
First up is the new beer collection by Rich Fairhead. If you’re a big craft beer fan then these are sure to be a hit. With a range of sizes from limited edition A2 Screen Print right through to small A5 Risographs. They look great together as a collection with varying sizes. Our favourite has to be The Burnt Beak Flamingo Beer.
There have been lots of ‘Greedy Gulls’ about Edinburgh these past few weeks and just as many customers with stories of those ‘pesky birds’. Emily MacKenzies print has been super popular, as people recall the last time they had their chips stolen.
