Woke up at 8 a.m. after a disturbed night's sleep on a Saturday morning all thanks to Mr B's gastroenteritis, which was made worse by the spicy Szechuan food he had for dinner last night before all the symptoms started. Unfortunate, I know. But looking on the bright side, this has given me extra time that I usually don't have on a Saturday morning to finally write up some reviews!
The Three Chimneys was probably the best restaurant that we went to in Scotland. In addition to excellent food, it also offers an absolutely stunning view overlooking Loch Dunvegan.
Mr B and I both went for the Skye Seafood Lunch. It's definitely not cheap but worth every penny. (And it was Mr B's dad's treat :P)
We were fortunate enough to be seated by the window and enjoyed this view throughout lunch.
I was full to the brim after this 3-course meal. Particularly enjoyed the super-fresh egg yolk, the scallops, the prawns and the white fish salad. I was a little disappointed by the potted crab, which had way too much salt in and the souffle, which was really firm (although they do call it a 'pudding souffle')
Mr B's mother ordered from the lunch menu and these turned out to be excellent as well.
We will probably never go back to the Three Chimneys again (simply because it's a painful nine-hour drive from Sheffield), but I thoroughly recommend it to anyone for their impressively knowledgeable waiting staff, excellent food and friendly service.
