Black Pig and Oyster, restaurant review, Edinburgh - Scotsman Food ...

Not to forget the chunky namesake of this place – the Iberian black pig or pata negra (black hoof), who forages on these oak seeds and, thus, unknowingly transforms himself into a rather succulently sweet and marble-fleshed jamon.

He is the speciality at this new Spanish restaurant, where there’s an Iberian Black Pig and Grill section.

Since it’s their speciality, the three of us ordered something from the latter’s Iberian Black Pig and Grill section – the take on surf and turf that was secreto and langoustines (£28) – and a whole bunch of tapas and sides.

One of our few non-deep-fried dishes – the picos blue pannacotta (£7) – was rich, salty and silky, with a pair of crostini struts propped against the side of the bowl and tiny cubes of cider-marinated pear.

The chocolate and peanut mousse (£7.95) was equally classy, with blotting-paper-thin shards of dark chocolate stacked and cemented together with blobs of white chocolate and peanut butter mousse, and there was a scoop of salted caramel ice-cream should you not be spoilt enough.

Slighhouse, Edinburgh, restaurant review - Scotsman Food and Drink

Although they’ve managed to make the horseshoe-shaped former premises of Bar Kohl look a lot bigger, it’s still a bit like being on a galleon, especially when you put a metal tealight holder on its side and it rolls off the table because of the subsidence (fun!)

It did, indeed, come in a little bottle, wrapped in brown paper with a neat bit of string tied in a bow around its waist, like a pair of Charlie Chaplin’s trousers.

It featured four slices of musky meat with a stocky gravy, a smudge of mouse-coloured smoked aubergine purée (bereft of smoky flavour), as well as a little ramekin of caraway seed-dusted, pickled and diced pumpkin.

In contrast, the seared ginger and balsamic salmon (£8) was helium light, with three slices of this fish on a “hot and sour slaw” that wasn’t that hot or sour, but was pleasant enough, with chopped cabbage, onion, carrot and other bits of softened vegetation.

However, I don’t think the cocktails could ever fail to disappoint – as long as you don’t ask the barman for a Slippery Nipple.
