We have often found tasting menu experiences overly long. Too many places that offer tasting menus design their food to be technically clever, rather than satisfying the motivation to eat in the first place.
I appreciate that our enjoyment of food has a huge amount to do with our ‘appetite’ in the moment. How we feel, our mood, affecting how receptive we are to the restaurant’s efforts.
So, maybe we went to this cosy, welcoming restaurant in a good mood, but we found the food both delicious and memorable. (So much so I forgot to take photos of the two most successful courses…)
I had never had hake served so tastily, and with a chicken broth! Venison, rolled in coffee (…?) was surprisingly tender and the cheese course was a novel success.
If how memorable a dinner is, is a measure of its quality, then Scorrybreac deserves all of its Michelin accolades.
What an amazingly exceptional restaurant located in remote Scotland! I’ve been to my fair share of Michelin listed restaurants and this rises very high on that list. From the exceptionally perfect service to the beautiful location to the world class tasting menu - it hits it out of the park. These dishes don’t just look good, they taste amazing as well and each bite makes you want to try more. They are also VERY accommodating to requests - it’s a seafood heavy menu but my dining partner doesn’t eat Seafood and they were willing to swap things around with notice. That just doesn’t happen in most high end tasting menu environments.
Easily one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in a long time, Scorrybreac offers delightful, creative, and filling dishes. Some favorites from our meal were the lamb, cod, and venison. The service was good and the space was charming and intimate. This spot needs to be at the top of your list while you’re in Skye.
TL;DR - Worth every penny, you better go!
