Halloumi Pop-Up Comes to Edinburgh

This April, for two weeks only, locals and visitors to Edinburgh can get their hands on a brand-new pure halloumi-based menu at Otro restaurant in Edinburgh’s west end.

Back by popular demand, the pop-up is the third of its kind created by the Deputy Ministry of Tourism for Cyprus and has been re-launched to give Scots a taste of the cheesy goodness and to entice people to the island.

Located in Edinburgh’s popular West End, Otro restaurant will serve an exciting new menu from Monday 8th April until Sunday 21st April. Created especially for the event by head chef, Maciek Szymik, the menu comprises an array of halloumi-inspired lunch and dinner dishes including:

  • Grilled new season asparagus – with pea & broad bean salad, grated halloumi (£8.50)
  • Coddled egg with smoked halloumi – with wild garlic and mushrooms (£6.50)
  • Lamb and halloumi meatballs – with burnt aubergine, pomegranate and mint (£7.00)
  • Courgette, chickpea and halloumi fritters – served with basil mayo (£6.50)
  • Halloumi waffle BLT – (£6.50)
  • Halloumi fries – served with harissa yoghurt & pomegranate (£3.95)

Diners will be able to try each dish individually or opt for the full tasting experience, sampling every item on a sharing platter for two, priced at £38.95 for six dishes.
