Here are Yelpers picks for some delicious spots across Glasgow and Edinburgh to dine on the delicious orange delight.
Yo Sushi
House of Fraser, Buchanan Street, Glasgow
Rob K recommends you try the "pumpkin korroke if you're after something a bit unusual". They're breaded pumpkin croquettes served with a fruity sauce.
The Gardener's Cottage
1 Royal Terrace Gardens, Edinburgh
Pumpkin as a dessert? Amber L enjoyed it! "A smoked pumpkin mousse, chocolate cream and hazelnut meringue. The pumpkin was surprisingly addicting and the hazelnuts have it a nice texture."
Chaophraya
Nelson Mandela Place, Glasgow
Sharon M recommends "the lamb shank in yellow curry. The lamb shank sat in the deep bowl of sauce accompanied by potatoes, broccoli and grilled pumpkin… the grilled pumpkin was just so tasty I could have cried."
The Dining Room
28 Queen Street, Edinburgh
"My first course was a thick and creamy pumpkin and Parmesan soup which was more like a smooth puree with pickled pumpkin along with bits of hazelnuts and porcini mushrooms," raves Tori U.
Two Fat Ladies at the Buttery
652 Argyle Street, Glasgow
Here you'll be offered a selection of breads to start the meal - Jenna C was impressed the options of tomato, olive or pumpkin bread.
The Edinburgh Larder
15 Blackfriar Street, Edinburgh
Suzanna T loved the "Applewood smoked cheddar with spicy pumpkin - a revelation! Now that I have discovered this wee gem, I will be back time and time again."
Jamie's Italian
1 George Square, Glasgow
Pumpkin lovers can enjoy two pasta options, whether it be the honeycomb cannelloni trio with aubergine and sun-dried tomato, or baked lasagne with beef and pork ragù and slow roasted pumpkin.
L'ecargot Blanc
17 Queensferry Street, Edinburgh
Julie G loved the "Parmesan risotto stuffed into a miniature pumpkin (complete with a very smart hat) - an interesting and well-done combination of flavors and textures."
Bo'Vine
385 Byres Road, Glasgow
"The scallops with pork belly and pumpkin puree worked so well together," says Michelle M. "I could have eaten it all over again."
Mark Greenaway
69 North Castle Street, Edinburgh
Susan M had the "pan roasted hake fillet with purple mash, lobster tortellini and pumpkin. It was delicate, and so fresh I suspect it leaped straight out of the sea onto my plate. The combination of flavours was sublime, the dish was beautifully presented and my plate was spotless at the end."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
