Haggis

Our first night in Edinburgh we all agreed that we had to experience a Scottish Pub. So, we went into this one. (I can't remember the name but it was well Scottish and everything inside was either green or red...somewhat of a tartan theme, I presume.) How disappointed were we when the first waitress turned out to be Canadian (Toronto) and the second waitress from somewhere in the Southern Hemisphere like NZ or Oz. I don't actually recall hearing a Scottish accent during our stop here. Even more disappointing was that the only Scottish beer they had was tenants. Well, at least they had haggis on the menu. It didn't taste like chicken but it didn't taste bad at all. If anything, it tasted a lot like very, very greasy ground beef with lots of chewy bits. I don't even want to think what the chewy bits might have been.
