About

This all-you-can-eat buffet in Edinburgh’s World Cuisines format ranges across Indian, Chinese, sushi and other stations, with dosa and some dishes prepared to order. Vegan diners report getting help from staff to identify suitable food, while reviews note that buffet labels may only say “vegetarian” and that curries or naan can contain yoghurt or ghee unless made separately.
