Galvin Brasserie de Luxe

They say that dogs are man’s best friend.

We beg to differ. From breakfast eggs to a Sunday roast, surely chicken has been man’s best friend.

Or at least his tastiest.

Celebrate the glories of the chicken with today’s Big Deal on corn-fed chicken for two at Galvin Brasserie de Luxe.

Five star surrounds

Part of the five star Waldorf Astoria Edinburgh – The Caledonian, Galvin Brasserie de Luxe is a chic brasserie which opened in 2012 under the umbrella of Chris and Jeff Galvin.

The Galvins are chef brothers whose London-based restaurants have caught the eye of the Michelin inspectors several times.

Their Edinburgh brasserie has a Michelin Bib Gourmand, indicating ‘good food at affordable prices’.

You can see what the Michelin man means by booking in with today’s Big Deal.

Lunch with a friend

Available for lunch and dinner, seven days a week, the offer is for two people to each have corn-fed chicken breast, carrot risotto and delicious Wye Valley asparagus plus the house aperitif – a Kir Gascon.

The choice of tea or coffee will finish off your meal.

This offer would be ideal for lunch with a friend; dinner with your other half or a pre-theatre bite to eat – The Lyceum, Traverse and Usher Hall are a five minute walk from Galvin Brasserie de Luxe.

Happy diners

The Brasserie has attracted plenty of enthusiastic reviews. This is a recent comment on the restaurant’s 5pm page:

‘Happy chaps. My husband and I had a very enjoyable meal here, service was excellent, good value for money. We will go back.’ Rating 4/5

This was left on TripAdvisor at the beginning of the month:

‘Love it! We have been here a number of times, mainly for lunch. The modern decor, the efficient welcome, the high quality of service are huge attractions. The food is very good too; well presented, memorable flavours, interesting choices. All good.’

Corn-fed chicken breast, carrot risotto and Wye Valley asparagus with a cheeky aperitif, all served in the cosmopolitan environment of The Caley.

This is a Big Deal to crow about.

Pluck today’s Big Deal, book into Galvin Brasserie de Luxe and renew your acquaintance with man’s real best friend – the chicken.
