The traditional Scottish haggis is a combination of lamb, oatmeal and spices blended to create an exiting and mouth-watering dish. Originally the haggis was eaten as an everyday meal (and of course still is!) but after Rabbie Burns wrote his famous 'Address to a Haggis' in the 18th Century became famous as Scotland's finest food, and has been synonymous with Scotland's cuisine ever since.
Now Haggis-n-Neeps have brought the traditional way of serving haggis and neeps back to its origins.
Haggis is traditionally served with Neeps and Tatties (mashed turnip and potatoes). Haggis-n-Neeps serve their haggis with neeps and tatties with a wee dram on top.
A wee myth has grown up around the haggis; that it is a small three-legged animal native to the Highland glens and mountains. Indigenous to Scotland the wee beastie is treasured as a delicacy amongst the finest members of society. Please note though, haggis is only available in season - 30th November (St. Andrew's Day) to 25th January (Robert Burn's birthday).
The fact is of course that the haggis is the savoury dish described above.... However don't let us come in the way of a good story....
