A YouTuber who stopped off at a city centre chippy in Edinburgh branded it 'elite-level'.
Matt, who runs Food Review Club, visited Landy's on North Bridge. He said he was 'shocked' after stumbling upon the spot, hailing it as a 'masterpiece'.
Admitting he's had a lot of 'below average' fish and chips, Matt said that Landy's was 'textbook, done right'.
Posting a clip of their trip to YouTube, Food Review Club said: "We're back above the border and deep in the heart of Edinburgh, where we stumbled upon Landy's — a place that's quietly serving up elite-level fish and chips, and we did not see it coming.
"This spot looks more like a modern diner than your traditional chippy, but don't let that fool you. From the light, crispy batter to the fluffy chips and runny curry sauce, this haddock-based masterpiece might just be one of the best we've ever had.
"No cake batter, no oil slick — just textbook fish and chips done right. And yes — we went full Scottish with an Irn-Bru to wash it down. We even shared the moment with some fellow visitors from Australia and got their verdict too.
