Flamingosaurus Rex

It was a bank holiday today, so Tom and I decided to head out and see what's new in Edinburgh.

Our first stop was Five Degrees on Barclay Place, which does breakfast, lunch, bubble tea and even a menu especially for dogs.

We made ourselves cosy in the back room and tucked into our lunch. I had a mushroom quiche and lychee bubble tea with blueberry bursting bubbles, while Tom had a salmon bagel and coffee.

Just across the road is Studio Flamingosaurus Rex which has to be the coolest named shop in Edinburgh.

The shop had a great selection of art prints, clothes and pins.

I ended up getting a ouija board pin and a pot of gin & tonic lip balm.

We took a walk through the blossom filled Meadows afterwards.

There's a new cafe in Marchmont called Wayoo Juicery, so we popped in to check it out.

I tried the cocoa elixer, a dairy and sugar free hot chocolate and a raw chocolate brownie that the waitress told us she had invented by accident the day before.
