Episode 3: Roberta Hall-McCarron, The Little Chartroom, Eleanore & Ardfern 

from Eating and Waiting to Eat · host Kevin Rivers and Carlos Miranda

Among Edinburgh’s, and Scotland’s, most beloved chefs, Roberta Hall-McCarron sits down with Kevin and Carlos to talk about her chef origin story, how she splits her time across three - equally beautiful and must visit - restaurants (The Little Chartroom, Eleanore & Ardfern), and even her fast food order (true to form, it includes Irn-Bru).This was a true joy of a conversation - you can tell how much fun we had recording this chat by all the laughter - as well as an insightful look at what it takes to set up, run, and manage several restaurants. Follow Eating and Waiting to Eat on Instagram at: www.instagram.com/eatingandwaitingtoeatRoberta's Links:https://www.instagram.com/chef_roberta_hallhttps://www.waterstones.com/book/the-changing-tides/roberta-hall-mccarron/9781739174033https://www.thelittlechartroom.comhttps://www.instagram.com/thelittlechartroomhttps://www.eleanore.ukhttps://www.instagram.com/eleanore_leithwalkhttps://ardfern.ukhttps://www.instagram.com/ardfern_edinburghLinks to the people, places, and restaurants mentioned by Roberta:Restaurants Near Me: Nearby McDonald’s Locations | McDonald’shttps://www.meatopia.co.uk/glasgow/home-glasgowhttps://www.jumeirah.com/en/stay/dubai/burj-al-arab-jumeirahhttps://www.instagram.com/tom_kitchinThe Kitchin - our Michelin-starred restaurant in Leith, Edinburghhttps://www.instagram.com/shaunmccarron1https://www.instagram.com/mcneill.hamishhttps://www.dishoom.com/edinburgh/https://thehawksmoor.com/locations/edinburghhttps://www.mirin.ukhttps://www.littlecapo.com
