Fraser Paterson

http://www.lothianlife.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Fraser-Paterson.jpg Fraser is 34 years of age, and has experience in many fields, including financial services, where he used to run his own business as an Independent Financial Adviser. He is also a senior member of Round Table, having been Chairman of South East Scotland last year. In the last twelve months Fraser's local table, City of Edinburgh, has stewarded at the Festival Cavalcade, as well as running a Santa's Sleigh around Blackhall in Edinburgh. Reverting to the business front, Fraser successfully set up and established a strong networking group of small business owners, drawn from across the Lothians, with the assistance of the Scotland South and East franchise owners of Business Network International (mainly known as BNI). Fraser was awarded Member of the Year for his Chapter at the Scottish Awards in 2004, the recipient for which is chosen by fellow members in recognition of outstanding contribution. Fraser's passion is excellent food, both in cooking it for himself and his good lady wife, but also enjoying it in eateries across the Lothians. He also enjoys writing, and thought it a very good idea to combine the two. As such Fraser now writes for a number of lifestyle magazines.

Hewat’s Restaurant in Causewayside, just to the South of Edinburgh’s city centre, received a somewhat harsh review in this year’s List guide to Eating and Drinking, so I thought I’d give it a second chance, so to speak. What a good decision it proved to be! The newly laid out waiting area was superb, and the décor in the restaurant itself had a warm, bright feel to it, though the modern art may not be to everyone’s taste. Read the rest of this entry »
