Khushi’s was the first Indian Restaurant to open in Edinburgh in 1947. The Founder, the late Khushi Mohammed knew that to succeed he needed to produce the best quality and most authentic curries that he could make.
At a time when Indian spices and ingredients were impossible to get in Scotland, his spices were imported from the Punjab. Using only the freshest ingredients and years of pioneering Indian food in Scotland he made Khushi’s an Edinburgh institution. His passion continues to make us endeavor to produce the best and has led to exciting new openings of our restaurants on the East Coast.

This circular walk on the northern edge of Dunfermline takes in Town Loch, Townhill Country Park and Townhill Woods. The full route is between 4.5 and 5 miles but it can be shortened to less than 3 miles. There is very little ascent involved but some of the paths can be rather muddy so walking boots are recommended if the ground is likely to be wet.
