Tattu expanding operations to Scotland with launch of Edinburgh restaurant
Following on from the opening of its Birmingham restaurant in January, Tattu Edinburgh will be the group’s second opening of 2019 and its fourth overall.
Tattu was founded by brothers Adam and Drew Jones and opened its first site in Manchester Spinningfields in 2015, followed by a Leeds restaurant in the Bond Court development in June 2017.
The new Edinburgh restaurant will, like the other Tattus, cover a large space, with 140 covers split over two floors of the city’s newly refurbished Mint Building on West Register Street.
Interior designs are said to be ‘inspired by Scotland’s cosmopolitan capital’, and ‘pay homage to the relationship between traditional and contemporary’.
It will feature a ‘Chinois-style’ interior of wooden fretwork, antique furnishings, chinoiserie fabric panelling, and polished marble walls.
The menu has been developed by executive chef Andrew Lassetter, and will feature a number of exclusive dishes including Szechuan rock shrimp; Asian-style beef carpaccio; and tuna yuzu ceviche.
“Edinburgh completely resonates with Tattu and the kind of unique experience we want to create for our diners,” says Adam.
“The offering in the city is incredibly diverse and contains some amazing operators, and we hope that Tattu will be a welcome addition to this exciting dining scene with our twist on modern Chinese cuisine.”
