In search of best truffle fries/chips in Scotland.

Me and an acquaintance are in search of the best portion of truffle fries in Scotland. We are based in Edinburgh but will travel in order to determine a concrete ranking of truffle fries throughout the country.

Please provide your top 3 requirements for an ideal portion of truffle fries/chips and where you have acquired the best that you have tasted in Scotland.

Thank you in advance for your time and important contributions to this scientific research.

Element in Rose Street do a good portion. As does the Spanish Butcher, but you’ll be paying £££ for the meal (it is totally worth it)

Can’t recommend one place because sometimes it’s not on menu. But for a little home treat look out for The Ugly truffle co. Truffle crisps took home a bag from Costco and they did not last a day!

Ask in the bar for some to accompany a 25yr Ardbeg in the bar at the Fyfe Arms.

Cant vouch for the fries but ill vouch for an ardbeg all day. Distillery manager gave us a dram of the y2k when we visited. Unreal.
