So yea, last monday, we girls went to the union to have our first ever burns supper!

We had a 3 course meal based on the traditional scottish food.

First up was the Scottish Broth which was mediocre but I was starving so it tasted okay. Whitni can cook better broths though heehe. As weird as it sounds, they put barley in their soup.


As for our main meal, it was haggis, neeps and tatties. A must try when you're here at Scotland. Haggis is made out of cow's intestines, very yummy but very sinfully fattening.

Grace hates haggis though. She tried to outsmart the waitress by telling her that she's vegetarian, only to receive a vegetarian haggis which tasted worse!

As for desert..

It was scottish tablet! It taste like sugar buttery cubes. Yeah, probably made out of sugar and butter. Freaking fattening. Yes tracy, we'll get fat if we eat a lot of those.

See our satisfied customers?? And after our dinner, we adjourned upstairs to learn the ceilidh dance, which is the scottish traditional dance. It was so funnn except for the fact that my feet were cover with blisters and loads of people kept stepping on my poor poor dainty feet. LOL.

Awesome night, its really interesting getting to know other people's culture :)
