The opening of a new Edinburgh restaurant has kick-started a legal row after the establishment appears to be named after a famous chef, despite there being no link to him at all.
Yotam Ottolenghi has reportedly been in touch with lawyers after a restaurant named after him looks set to open on Leith Walk, although the chef's team have confirmed to Edinburgh Live that it is not one of his restaurants.
On December 19, a user on Twitter uploaded a picture of the exterior of the restaurant as renovation work was being carried out. It was met by a flurry of confused locals, some of which took it upon themselves to contact Ottolenghi's firm.
