Taste of Home Edinburgh is a Chinese restaurant at 53 Clerk Street in Newington. Open throughout the week for lunch and dinner, it combines casual dine-in service with collection and delivery and offers a broad menu suited to both individual dishes and shared meals.
The cooking ranges across familiar Cantonese-style favourites and more regional preparations. Mao’s braised pork, double-cooked pork, beef and tomato stew and Xinjiang-style spicy chicken with potatoes and noodles show the menu’s emphasis on hearty, full-flavoured dishes.
Sichuan influences appear in sliced fish or beef in chilli oil, dry pots and spicy broths, while seafood choices include steamed sea bass, squid and king prawns. Offal, fish-head and frog dishes sit alongside chicken, beef and pork, giving adventurous diners options beyond a standard takeaway selection.
Vegetable dishes include garlic greens, lotus root and hot-and-sour potato, with tofu appearing in several preparations. Rice and noodles make it easy to build a meal for sharing; guests with allergies or dietary restrictions should confirm ingredients, sauces and cooking arrangements with staff before ordering.
Address: 53 Clerk Street, Newington, Edinburgh EH8 9JQ, Scotland
