I remember getting back to the city on the fitba special train after an unfortunate cup final replay at Dens Park in 1979, and having to walk along King Street as the toon buses were already finished, and sighing with relief that the Bluebird was closed as I’d have felt obliged to purchase and drink one of their liquid black pudden suppers.
We are lucky to have a branch of Sea Salt and Sole near us these days, and they’ve cracked it as far as top dollar soul food’s concerned.
