WHERE TO FIND GOOD SOUP IN DUNKELD
KATIE'S TEAROOM, BIRNAM
It's a short and most enjoyable walk of only a mile from Dunkeld Railway Station, at Birnam, to Dunkeld itself. When I look at a map I also see some place called Little Dunkeld, and I am unsure where Birnam stops and Little Dunkeld begins, then ends and turns into Dunkeld. I'm not even sure that it matters. I imagine that Little Dunkeld is where the little people live, the Picts and their hobbit-like descendants. If you can't wait to throw soup down your throat then Katie's Tearoom is just outside Birnam, beside a garage. It's a plain sort of place with a homely interior, and as well as all-day breakfasts and that sort of thing you can slurp 'Leek and Potato' or 'Yellow Split Pea' soups.

THE SCOTTISH DELI, 1 ATHOLL STREET, DUNKELD
This delicatessen is impressively similar to their only other branch in Pitlochry. It is a gastronomic gem, with great emphasis on the use of local produce. They have the same soup and sandwich range as their other branch, in addition to a table where you may rest your bones and slurp stuff like, 'Butterbean, Rosemary and Isle of Mull Cheddar' soup. As well as a whole host of interesting Scottish foodstuff, they have bottles of Scottish cider - made from Scottish apples - and a plethora of wondrous things that you will want to take away and eat. A million out of ten for The Scottish Deli.

PALMERSTON'S COFFEE SHOP, 20 ATHOLL STREET
Palmerston's is an excellent coffee house with a good emphasis on the use of local produce. It is small and homely inside, with mountains of home-baked bits and bobs like jams and chutneys, as well as local honey. There's one soup on each day, like 'Carrot, Potato, and Turnip.' When I was there they had an advert in the window. It read, 'WANTED - RHUBARB'. I mean, that's exactly the spirit we want to see. You bring stuff that grows in your garden and they magically transform it into an edible delicacy. Superb. [Check out Palmerston's Coffee Shop website HERE.]
