From castle-sourced venison and hand-dived scallops cooked straight from the sea to whisky tastings (and a spirited debate about haggis and HP \u201cbrown\u201d sauce), Flora shares how Scottish culinary traditions are being reimagined for modern meetings and incentives. They also discuss how Scotland leads with inclusion\u2014where accommodating dietary needs is second nature\u2014and sustainability, with menus planned months in advance and ingredients locally sourced to minimize waste and celebrate the land\u2019s abundance. Whether you\u2019re planning your next incentive trip or dreaming of dining with a view of Edinburgh\u2019s Royal Botanic Garden, this episode is a delicious reminder that in Scotland, every meal tells a story\u2014and, as Flora says, \u201cevery meal should be devoured.\u201d ","author_name":"Eating at a Meeting","author_url":"https:\/\/www.eatingatameeting.com\/","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/39624570\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/197190095"}
