Tony Macaroni
April 9, 2016

The shopping in Edinburgh is pretty good, but if it’s designer outlet you’re looking for then Livingston is where you need to be. There are quite a few places to eat around The Centre and Designer Outlet but the offering is predominantly big chains such as Wagamama’s and Nandos.

If you want somewhere a bit more independent, try Tony Macaroni’s. With twelve restaurants around Scotland (and more planned!) it’s becoming a bit of a chain itself, but at least it’s still local.

With no Fentimans Rose Lemonade on the menu, I opted for a Sanpellegrino and very nice it was too. It was a sunny day outside and it got me thinking about eating al fresco in sunnier climates very soon.

We don’t usually bother with a starter as the portions are always pretty generous, but for the purposes of this feature we gave the Pollo Fritto a go – chicken fillets deep fried in a basil and pine nut batter served with a garlic mayonnaise. The husband loved them, I found them a little heavy on oil.

The lunch deal is great value, just £5.95 and there’s a wide variety of dishes to choose from. We chose the lasagne from the lunch menu and the daily special, mushroom pappardelle with truffle.

Both dishes were delicious and that’s what I like about Tony Macaroni’s, it’s reliable, we’ve never had to complain. We also had focaccia, their bread is lovely as they have a proper pizza oven. All in all a really lovely lunch to provide the necessary energy for more shopping!
