When The Traveling Professor takes his small group tours to Edinburgh, Scotland, a big part of the day is deciding where to eat.  There are plenty of good choices for breakfast, lunch and dinner.  There are lots of places for pub food but The Professor even recommends expanding your horizons a bit further and even trying Scottish Barbecue.  In any case, all of these selections would be a good choice for the traveler on their next trip to Scotland.
