ADVERTORIAL
THE BON VIVANT
The latest addition to the burgeoning street is all about good
living. The Bon Vivant offers an exceptional drinking and dining
experience. Here, the focus is on enjoying quality, without the
price tag to match, and the bar is starting to enjoy shining ‘word of
mouth’ reviews from locals recommending the bar to friends. All
30 wines are available by the glass or carafe and The Bon Vivant
has perhaps the best value Champagne list in Edinburgh with a
choice of seven by the glass. Tis’ the season to be
Champagne guzzling, after all and the cosy, candlelit
interior of The Bon Vivant provides the perfect spot to do so.
Fantastic homemade food available too… Good living indeed.

Having recently celebrated their 10th anniversary this
unassuming practice champions the cause of quality eyewear.
Angel Jackson at Covet From the start, the practice adopted the bold stance of
providing best possible eye care and providing to its discerning
clients only hand made frames. However, in the age of Bling
they are unusual in that they do not feature any brand logo
on the outside. "Let other people do logos, our quality speaks
for itself," says Shamim Arbab, the principal optometrist and
founder of Eyes.
Eyes Stocks spectacles worn by royalty, celebrities and designers,
the unique look and feel of the frames makes them instantly
recognisable, unique and highly sought after, whilst still being
affordable. Eyes offer exquisite personal service and state of the
art equipment that larger practises can only dream of.
