Joan Eardley

An extraordinary display celebrating the life of Joan Eardley, one of Scotland’s most popular twentieth-century artists. This celebratory two-room display at The Scottish Gallery of Modern Art marks 100 years since the birth of Eardley, who is widely regarded as one of the most influential painters of her generation. The exhibition offers up an insight into her working practice and focuses on her works produced in Catterline, the coastal village in Kincardineshire, where she worked from the early 1950s.

Dr Neil’s Garden

The Dr Neil’s Garden is one of the most remarkable gardens in Scotland today. Lying next to the twelfth-century Duddingston Kirk, where the lower slopes of Arthur’s Seat meet Duddingston Loch, this secluded garden is the result of the imagination, dedication and sheer hard work of Drs. Andrew and Nancy Neil. It has sometimes been called Edinburgh’s Secret Garden.

Equally delicious and divisive. This take by Paul on Nigella’s Basque Burnt Cheesecake with Liquorice Sauce was such a huge hit with cheesecake and liquorice lovers alike at Christmas he’s added it to our supper at 94DR repertoire.

Seasonal Pairings Strawberries

Seasonal Pairings Strawberries
The Scottish strawberry season is on its way! For many of us, the appearance of strawberries on our plates signifies the start of summer. Scottish strawberries are famously some of the best in the world and the northeast of Scotland and Fife have the ideal climate for growing the perfect strawberry with its warm days and cool nights.
We asked Philippe Larue from our wine merchants, L’ Art du Vin to come up with a perfect pairing.
“To provide an exciting pairing here we need a wine with a balance between residual sugar and acidity. My top pick would be a well-chilled Muscat Beaumes de Venise from Château Pesquié in the south of the Rhône region in France.
The key to this pairing is that the Muscat is sufficiently light and fresh not to dominate the more delicate flavours of the strawberries – a match made in heaven!
