With Hywel being a proud Welshman, guests can expect to see a wealth of native dishes and ingredients on this menu cooked with his unique flair, including Laver Bread, Gower Salt March Lamb, and Bara Brith.

Full menu below:
• Laver bread bread, Welsh cultured butter
• Brown crab and miso custard, citrus jelly, puffed potato and seaweed

• Preserved bramble, puffed buckwheat and lemon verbena ice
• Bara brith souffle, tea ice cream
Hywel and Scott will also work together on accompanying snacks and petit fours

‘The Native Series’ invites top chefs from around the country who celebrate their own natural larder to join Scott Smith at Fhior on Edinburgh’s Broughton Street in a collaborative chef series this autumn.

From coast to field and sea to land, customers can expect six stunning courses cooked and delivered by chefs from all four corners of the UK over four dinner dates.

Further information on individual menus can be found on the Fhior website. The six-course menu will include additional snacks, bites and petit fours and are priced at £110pp, an additional wine pairing is available upon request and other drinks can be purchased on the evening.
