00:00Good morning, I am sitting here at the beautiful Tales of Restaurant inside the spectacular Brigadoon Hotel.
00:08Tales Restaurant was the last part of a £2.5 million transformation of this purely stunning hotel in Ayrshire.
00:17It's not too far a drive from Glasgow, we get down here within the error, just below the error.
00:23As you can see behind me, this room is absolutely stunning. It's inspired the Scottish folklore.
00:30We are in typical Burns country here with his birthplace only being up the road that you can walk to.
00:35There's a visitor centre around the corner where you can explore the history of Robert Burns.
00:39And of course, that bridge from Tam O'Shanter is just over my left shoulder there.
00:45The menu in here is incredible. We had a beautiful meal in here last night.
00:50A prawn cocktail to start for me. My better half went for the chicken tenders.
00:55There's a scotch egg in there. The haggis. There's a haggis crepe on the menu.
00:59And then for me it was beef Wellington for me, which was absolutely tremendous.
01:02It was an individual part of it. You don't see that in too many places, but it was honestly one of the best things that I've eaten.
01:07That was served with a red wine jus and some veg, and potatoes too.
01:12On the other side we went for a steak. Subway steak cooked to perfection.
01:17You've got a nice bit of meat. And then of course there's a stuffed life. There's a lemon and black pepper chicken on the main menu.
01:22And there's other choices. There's a couple of seafood options too. Fish and chip steak probably a wee bit more traditional.
01:30There's a great bar in there to the right. You've got ten that's in draft, men of brae and draft.
01:35There's plenty of bottles and cans you can choose from. Plenty of spirits and a great cocktail menu too.
01:40Making it the perfect place for a date night. One of the other things I noticed with the menu was the market menu.
01:46Two courses for 20 quid, which is great value. So if you're in the area of fancying a wee day trip or a night away, I would thoroughly recommend Brigadoon.
01:58And if not, and you're just passing by, get yourself into Teal's restaurant and try it out. It's absolutely stunning.
02:04And I'm sure he would agree after you try it that it's well worth the journey down from Glasgow.
