Scottish Food Tour! 😋 In this video we're in Ayr, Scotland, a seaside town on the southwest side of Scotland. While here we're trying Scottish food to see what it's like. We enjoyed our first try of Scottish food in our last video in Glasgow (Scotch Pie and Deep fried Mars Bar). Here in Ayr we're heading nothing but Scottish food, is it any good? In this video we try a whole bunch of things from Scotland's own soft drink, Irn-Bru, to Scotland's famous National dish, Haggis.
Everything we eat in the video (and where):
Sunday Roast (chicken and roast beef): Vista Restaurant
Irn-Bru
A tasting platter with steak pie, Mince and tatties and haggis Neeps and tatties: The Tam O'Shanter Inn
Scotch Whisky tasting (Lochlea and Arran): The Twa Dugs

Great vid guys. The TWA DUGS is owned by a radio and telly sports pundit Tam Cowan. Well done for trying haggis! Haha, I like it but only if I switch my mind off to what it is! What you should know is that the texture also has a lot to do with the oatmeal and other inoffensive bulking ingredients! Travelling when cheaper: Couldn’t possibly know when is best for travel from Canada, but the cheapest rates for visiting Scotland would be outwith School holidays which is peak season. This means Easter, 7 weeks of summer, October week, and of course Christmas. Your best bet for this is to check the local council website for whatever area (example, GOOGLE “south Ayrshire council school holidays” for Ayr holidays). Another tip is that school holidays in England are different so if coming to Scotland in peak season, fly to Manchester in England as it may be cheaper, and drive up here (about 4.5hrs). Also, don’t forget to tick the West Highland Way off your bucket list! Check out their Facebook pages for tips and to read the experiences of people who’ve travelled across the globe to do it. Just come across you today. Will be sure to follow more of your journeys 🫶🏻x

I live in Ayrshire, and I think you made a pretty good choice to pop down from Glasgow. Lots of tourists insist on visiting the Highlands, but it typically involves more travel time, and there's just as much to see in the Lowlands. I recommend my home county of Galloway particularly, as it is often likened to Hobbiton.

There is no stomach in Haggis. Traditionally it was cooked in a sheep's stomach, but today that's been replaced with sausage skin. It is the offal from sheep and cows, hearts lung and liver minced together with oats and seasoning.

@suszh8981 9 ай бұрын

Ayrshire resident, glad you enjoyed the town, I think the secret to eating haggis is to not know what's in it. The one problem with Scotland in the summer is the midges, so if you're thinking about a nice summer's days stroll anywhere near a loch (lake) then be warned, the Scottish midgie is a nightmare.

@rayk48 7 ай бұрын

Going to Scotland in February or March is better than you may expect. Very green. Cheap flights also. Suggest going to Stirling and seeing the castle where Mary Queen of Scots lived and also the William Wallace monument. Take the ferry to Arran too. Beautiful island. Go to the West Brewery on Glasgow Green. Great beer and food and as a bonus its close to the terracotta fountain. The Peoples Palace on the Green is also fun and informative. Lastly take in a Rangers match at the Ibrox. A local told me to check out the Ranger fan pub next to the subway(which is an experience in itself) entrance on game day. It was insane! So much fun listening to Ranger fans singing club songs and drinking ales, while shoe horned into a tight space.

Not surprised you didn't like the haggis as first of all there are all types, some really good and some not so good, but also it is made with minced sheeps heart, liver , lungs with oatmeal and various spices there is NO STOMACH in it this is a myth , yes in the old days it was traditionally cooked in a washed out sheeps stomach and although this can still be found it is mostly made in casings or bungs, you can also get vegetarian haggis which tastes a lot like stuffing !

Ayr beach is one of the nicest beaches in the southwest of the country. Next time you're in that neck of the woods I'd also recommend Largs. The best Irn Bru is the 1901 edition, which tastes most like how ordinary Irn Bru tasted prior to its recipe being changed due to the sugar tax. Irn Bru Extra is also fairly good. Ordinary Irn Bru like you tried is now my least favourite. Haggis varies wildly in quality, and that doesn't look like one I would have particularly enjoyed I must say - it looks way too dry so I'd have wanted a whisky sauce with it. That is a really neat idea they had though with the sharing plates, and yes I would say that's more a local's place - you're probably the very first proper youtubers they've ever had! The best way to have Scotch whisky is with a little bit of water to your own taste - not neat, and never with ice. Also Arran is amazing to visit - the village where Arran whisky is made - Lochranza - just has deer wandering about it! Best time to visit would probably be Spring - early summer, and a chain to keep in mind is Premier Inn - nothing fancy but they tend to be cheap and they're always spotless. Next time you're here please visit Loch Lomond and the Trossachs!

It’s outwith UK school holiday time and no yet peak season but the weather is generally milder (although it’s Scotland so 4 seasons in one day isn’t uncommon!). I’m from Ayrshire but absolutely recommend visiting the Highlands and Islands if possible - Lewis/Harris/Mull/Arran are all fantastic. Dumfries & Galloway is a very underrated area of Scotland too.

I am Scottish and lived there for 55 years and have now lived in the states for more than 10 years. There is no stomach in haggis. It was traditionally cooked in the sheep's stomach but that was just a casing, it was not eaten. Although you can still buy haggis in a sheep's stomach it is more common now for it to be in an artificial casing which is not eaten either. What you had was sliced haggis, which is a slice from a rolled haggis much the same size and shape as a salami. Tatties are potatoes and neeps are mashed turnip.

Hi not a bad choice to go to Ayr. I'm 54 miles north of it a small town called Port Glasgow. The haggis doesn't actually contain stomach it just used to be cooked and boiled in one. Most of the haggis you get now in supermarkets is in an artificial plastic casing. You can also buy a vegetarian version. Fellow Canadian kd lang has apparently had the vegetarian version on visits to Glasgow when doing a gig there and liked it. Have you been to Edinburgh in August during the Fringe festival? The atmosphere in Edinburgh at that time is amazing. Although the hotels then in Edinburgh could be pretty expensive. But you could always stay outside of Edinburgh and travel into the city. Glencoe is also a great place to see the scenery is so dramatic. If your interested in Skye I have a video I did there on my channel. The view from the Old Man Of Storr on Skye is world class.

If you're want to go to the Highlands then that doesn't necessitate going to, or staying in, Inverness. Tbh personally I'd generally skip Inverness. There are plenty other parts of the highlands that are nice and aren't quite as busy. If you want to try an island, the one you can see from Ayr - Arran - isn't a bad choice because its very nice and scenic, and, whilst it's popular with Scottish visitors, it doesn't seem to get as many foreign ones. It has mountains, beaches, a castle, a distillery etc, all on a fairly small island.

I was up in Inverness and Highlands just last week actually, it IS a beautiful part of the Country but at the same time, Inverness itself is maybe a bit TOO touristy. That’s maybe just me, when I explore new places, I prefer the authentic ‘off the beaten track’ kind of approach

When you drink single malt, if its a 8yr old take a sip and keep it in your mouth and count to 8, then swallow it, that when you get the true taste of that malt, enjoy.

Never add ice to a single malt. The flavours are just too nuanced and delicate to then add ice, which then just locks up the flavour instead of releasing it which is not what you want. If you want, you can add a splash of water to reduce the ABV intensity and it helps release the flavour. If you really want Scotch whisky 'on the rocks', do that only with blended whisky, whisky liqueurs or whisky cocktails

I do that with blended whisky but to be honest.. I just prefer it cold 🤷🏻 (like some folks like cold red wine... which I think is nuts) 😉 - Trevor

I agree! No ice in whisky! Ruins it!

GLASWEGIAN HERE , My tip for the next time you visit Scotland is to hire a Campervan (RV) and tour Scotland from the Lowland , Highlands & Islands . And by hiring a Campervan it gives you a place to cook and sleep saving you money on hotels & restaurants . 🚦🌏😂

The correct way to drink malt whisky, not whiskey!, is with a little local water, not neat or on ice.

💯 It is claimed, though somewhat disputed, that Chicken Tikka Masala (which is Britain's national dish these days) was invented at the Shish Mahal restaurant in Glasgow. Chicken Chasni is a favourite with Scots as well and well worth seeking out. Oh, and don't forget the pakora and pink sauce.
