Square Meal review of Plumed Horse:

At the end of 2006 the Plumed Horse relocated from the village of Crossmichael to the shores of Leith. The transplanted operation is much more modest (size, personnel) & the location isn’t great, but the high-quality food more than compensates. Starters include corn-fed chicken & foie gras lasagne with mushroom sauce & raisins. When available, roast loin & haunch of roe deer with thyme-scented pomme boulangere, celeriac & compote of girolles is a popular main; with warm mascarpone rice pudding, poached golden plums & apricot sorbet to finish. Three courses at dinner (£38) are noticeably cheaper than some other nearby premium establishments, but the experience here is homely & intimate rather than slick.
