Characterised by its vibrant culinary scene, Dundee's geographical position - on the spectacular River Tay estuary and in close proximity to Scotland's fertile farmlands - has fashioned a city considerably built upon culinary exploits, dating back centuries. Historically, Dundee was renowned for its 'three Js': Jute, Jam, and Journalism, with the 'Jam' aspect signifying the city's long-standing contribution to delectable treats, such as the eponymous Dundee Cake. With hearty traditional Scottish delicacies seamlessly blending with contemporary international flavours, Dundee's restaurants provide an exciting culinary journey for their patrons. Renowned local establishments, set in historical buildings, offer a trip down memory lane, serving dishes inspired by Dundee's culinary ancestors, lovingly crafted using local produce. Meanwhile, the emergence of worldly cuisines and avant-garde food establishments reflect Dundee's evolution into a dynamic food-focused city. From the traditional 'Arbroath Smokie' - a type of smoked haddock native to this region - to the innovative gastronomic creations served by trend-setting dining spots, Dundee truly indulges both the history and the evolution of food-making endeavour.
