Taking the restaurant out of The Rutland

The award-winning Restaurant at The Rutland’s head chef David Haetzman is taking his kitchen to Edinburgh’s Farmer’s Market on Saturday, 10 October 2009.

Between 10am and 1pm David will demonstrate a main course and a dessert using prime Scottish ingredients to create delicious, yet simple dishes.

The exact menu will be decided on the day: “I plan to buy most of my ingredients fresh from stall holders in the morning”, says David. “The selected dishes will depend on what’s available, which is exactly how we plan our menu in the restaurant.

“The farmers market is a great opportunity not only to showcase our style of cooking but also to tell Edinburgh foodies about the radical transformation of The Rutland.”

Guests will be treated to free samples and can take away discount vouchers to enjoy a meal at the Restaurant at The Rutland, recently voted ‘Scotland’s Most Exciting New Restaurant’.

David will hold four cookery demonstrations of 20 minutes each between 10am and 1pm. For more information about the farmers market visit edinburghfarmersmarket.com.
