Our weekly ritual is to have lunch at Molly's in Stonehaven. The menu isn't particularly different from most other Scottish eateries but the service is wonderful and the food is good. As I often find, if there is good coffee everything else kind of falls into place and Molly's follows that rule.

Today the view from the front was of a black stormy sea with dirty white horses riding the waves. So warm and welcoming inside yet looking out at that dark sea. I had an omelette with red onion, cheddar and tomato served with a simple but decent side salad and very crunchy (in a wonderful way) chips. And of course a lovely americano. Not too watery, a thin layer of creamy foam. Lovely.
