Restaurant review: Let the world slip by at homely oasis of The Grouse and Claret in Kinross
Murray Chalmers finds a hidden gem in Kinross where a spectacular setting meets delicious food.
Grouse and claret might feel like a combination somewhat out of time right now, given that we’re still eating strawberries whilst enjoying enough summer sun to banish lockdown’s ghostly, haunted pallor – a look so 2021 that it became as universal as Adidas stripes, 10lb weight gains and hangovers on a Tuesday.
But, to the incredulity of my friends in London, I last lit a log fire in my house just a few weeks ago – albeit not so much for the heat as for the dreich-dispelling cheery glow only a living flame can provide on a miserably sunless summer’s day.
