We stopped off at KB Italian restaurant on our way through Crieff following a walk in the hills. The restaurant has a prominent position on the High Street in what looks like a converted Bank. Italian flags mark the spot. Easy to find. We spotted it as we travelled through and booked from our walk.

It has all been heavily sanitised in light of the pandemic and this gives the place a slightly unwelcoming antiseptic feel. Staff in visors and easy to clean plastic everywhere. Sign of our regrettably strange times.

Never judge a book by its cover. This is really a very good local Italian restaurant and a totally unexpected find. The aubergine timbale was a lovely, rich mixture and the shared antipasti delighted the meat eaters. We also had an excellent Ravioli and a dark rich lasagne. All followed by glorious gelati. Both the Nero’DAvola and local bottled pilsner from Pelaton were perfect complements. A real treat.
