CLOSURE, CONJECTURE AND A POSSIBLE CURSE
What’s going on at No 62 Raeburn Place?
Only a few weeks after opening in the lavishly refurbished former premises of Corson’s the ironmongers, the Stockroom deli (‘for foodies by foodies’) suddenly and mysteriously shut up shop.
No explanatory notice has been posted in the window, and some two months’ unopened mail piles up inside the front door.
CULINARY CANINE COMIN SOON
The Howlin Hound will open shortly at 7 East London Street. Painters, decorators and folk with no chat but impressive toolboxes have been busy at the premises for over two weeks.
BEERHIVE'S FIRST BREW
After 12 years in business, staff at The Beerhive are releasing their first beer, made in collaboration with the Closet Brewing Project.
Edinburgh-based Closet Brewing are one of the smallest micro-breweries (if not the smallest) in the country. Their name derives from the fact that the very first beers they made were brewed in a closet in their home!
They have now scaled up to their kitchen and this is where Peter Sherry and Beehive colleagues brewed the beer with them a couple of months ago.
