Chef Tyler King returns to Edinburgh to open Bridge 15

A former senior sous chef at Michelin-starred Prism restaurant in Berlin is to open a modern Scottish restaurant within the Bridge Inn, Edinburgh, later this month.

Tyler King is returning to Scotland to open Bridge 15, having previously worked at Number One at The Balmoral and Castle Terrace.

King said: “I always knew I wanted to come back to Scotland to open a restaurant and showcase the top-quality produce we have here. I am ecstatic to be part of such an iconic Edinburgh gastropub and l am looking forward to bringing something new to the table for our guests.

“The menus at Bridge 15 at The Bridge Inn will be constantly evolving, with daily specials changing depending on what we receive from local suppliers. Being able to work on dishes with vegetables and pork sourced from the pub’s own garden is phenomenal.”

The chef will serve dishes such as Arbroath smokie doughnut, spring onion emulsion; mushroom ravioli, egg yolk pureé, mushroom broth, black garlic and puffed rice; monkfish mussel XO, burnt leek, pine nut and vermouth sauce as well as Crowdie cheesecake mousse rhubarb, toasted oats.

King will also oversee a bar menu for the Bridge Inn, which sits on the banks of Union Canal in Ratho.

Bridge 15 opens on 15 March.
