We tried 3D-printed fish at Edinburgh vegan restaurant and were gobsmacked

Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Lots of people think going vegan means giving up comfort foods and traditional home-style dishes, but that's not the case. Especially now, with plant-based food science getting better and better, vegan alternatives to your favourite dishes are becoming easier to find and increasingly convincing. That's what brought me to Sora Diana one Saturday August 16 to try 3D printed "fish". Sora Diana, located on Causewayside in city centre serves mouth-watering vegan Italian food. Their menu includes vegan versions of Italian classics like carbonara, ravioli, pizza, and even plant-based steaks. I've been vegetarian for nearly a decade, with three years of veganism in the middle. Vegan food remains one of my favourite types of cuisine but one thing I've always missed is fish. I grew up in the United States fishing off the coast of the Jersey Shore and nothing hits more than a good fillet. When I ordered the 3D-printed fish, I was curious how similar it would be to real fish. Sora Diana is offering the dish for a limited time only while they trial the product on their menu. It comes from Revo foods, which specialises in plant-based, 3D printed "meat" products. They use cutting-edge technology to print plant-based "fish" using an edible "ink". Revo also sells "salmon" and "octopus" products, which includes tentacles and suction cups. I should begin with the slight disclaimer that I haven't eaten fish since I was 16, which was nearly 10 years ago. However, I was shocked to find that the white "fish" bore a striking resemblance to the real thing. The fillet had an uncannily fishy flavour. Even the oils had a similar mouth feel. Internally, it even had the ridges and lines of real fish and had a soft melt-in-the-mouth flavour. (Image: Edinburgh Live) I'll admit, the first bite initially feels a bit foreign but then the fishy flavour really hits and you wonder how they got it to taste that way using only plant-based ingredients The dish was paired with red and yellow tomatoes, sautéed samphire, and fluffy pita, rounding out a really delicious and hearty meal. Overall, I'd say the fillet was not exactly, 100 per cent identical in texture to fish but it was undeniably tasty and definitely the most convincing plant-based meat substitute I've ever tried. It gives a genuine fillet a run for its money and is something I would recommend to non-vegans as a delicious, well-rounded meal. Lots of us who go vegan and vegetarian didn't do so because we didn't dislike the taste of meat, so having plant based alternatives to familiar, homy recipes is comforting. (Image: Edinburgh Live) Sora Diana introduced the white fish today, Saturday, August 16 and it is available while stocks last. The Revo product may make a permanent appearance on the menu if the trial goes well, so try it while you can.

ScotRail rolls with it in busiest 2025 week as Oasis fans flock to Edinburgh

ScotRail had its busiest week of 2025 so far, carrying almost two million passengers as music fans flocked to Oasis reunion concerts. Around 328,000 people travelled with ScotRail on Friday August 8, when Liam and Noel Gallagher and their band took to the stage for the first of three sellout gigs at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh. That total was up by almost a fifth (19%) compared with the same day last year. Meanwhile, a total of 327,000 travellers took to the rails on Saturday, with passenger numbers for that day 12% higher than the same date in 2024, up 12% on 2024. ScotRail added that these days were the busiest its services had been since December 14 last year, when the festive season was in full swing. With the third Oasis concert taking place in the capital on Tuesday August 12, ScotRail said it had carried a total of 1,995,000 people over the week commencing Friday August 8. David Ross, chief operating officer at the rail operator said: 'This week once again confirms that ScotRail is increasingly the travel mode of choice for people going to large events in Scotland. 'The fact that we've just delivered the busiest week of 2025 so far shows how important large concerts and events are to our business and the Scottish economy. 'Our frontline staff once again delivered an excellent service for almost two million customers who chose to travel with ScotRail.'

Unlike a lot of his opponents, Jake was unable to put the cake down for the count. But he saw the funny side by having a warm embrace with Logan. Paul hasn't set foot inside the ring since his laboured points victory over former middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr in June. The former Disney actor's representatives recently held talks over a shock showdown with two-time heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua. Paul and his team are hopeful the mammoth crossover clash will come to fruition and are confident of pulling off an incredible upset against AJ.
