Say cheese

We’ll spare you the joke about what cheese says when it looks in the mirror, and just tell you about the special halloumi-based menu that’s available at Edinburgh’s Otro from Monday 8 April until Sunday 21 April. In collaboration with Visit Cyprus, head chef Maciek Szymik has created a menu that celebrates this squeaky cheese, with dishes including coddled egg with smoked halloumi (£6), halloumi waffle BLT (£6.50) and lamb and halloumi meatballs with burnt aubergine, pomegranate and mint (£7). Dishes are priced individually, or you can try all six, as sharing platters between two, for £38.95 in total. 22 Coates Crescent, Edinburgh (0131-556 0004, www. otrorestaurant.co.uk)
