Harden's says
Star Edinburgh chef Tom Kitchin opened this new restaurant on the Bruntsfield site formerly occupied by his bistro Southside Scran, which closed down in 2020 after barely a year’s operation – a victim of both flooding and the pandemic.

Summary
Tom Kitchen created this new gastropub to replace his bistro Southside Scran, which closed down in 2020 after barely a year’s operation: a victim of both flooding and the pandemic. It opened in August 2022, too late for our annual diners’ poll – reports please!
For 32 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

Kora Restaurant Diner Reviews

"A wonderful Korean fried chicken dish, followed by a great broccoli dish and chocolate doughnuts. Loved it am- another triumph from Tom Kitchin "

"A wonderful experience, worth far in excess of what we paid. We will be back."
