I must heartily agree about "Dear Francesca". It is superb.
And mary Contini is presently one of the V&C owners and her daughter Francesca has just opened a new cafe bar in George Street Edinburgh called Vin Caffe; it's getting rave reviews, but I haven't been yet.

Sheila, the V&C Vin Caffe, which as you correctly say is run by Francesca Contini, is on Multrees Walk. Centotre, which is owned by Victor & Carina Contini & opened about a year ago, is on George Street (103 !) & is vg.

Sheila, not at all ! You know a lot more about Edinburgh things than most peple who live here, I'm sure !
I got 'Dear Francesca' for Xmas a year or two ago but I'm afraid it is still on the 'to read' shelf.
