Miss Morag can be a little resistant to change. Having new eating places to explore is obviously a good thing. But somewhat like a crotchety old lady who's rather set in her ways, MM is suspicious of change when it comes to old favourites. Sometimes in an effort to grow and reinvent themselves, cafes and restaurants lose sight of what made them great in the first place. Thankfully this isn't the case with Sisco's recent makeover.

They've remodelled so the space feels about twice as big, opened up the kitchen and made room for quite a few more tables including a lovely big old table designed for groups or communal dining. It feels so light and bright and even cheerier than before.

All the most important things have stayed the same. There's still a cabinet laden with delicious house-made goodies like spiced apple cake, brownies, orange syrup cake, friands and muffins.

They're still serving up hearty, delicious fare like this Toulouse sausage baguette breakfast with caramelised onion, parmesan, house-made relish and garlic aioli (pictured here with haloumi on the side). Quality ingredients and products are still at the heart of the menu including bread from Leavain, and also gluten-free options from Mamakaz.

There is a shiny new coffee machine and new organic, fair trade Botanica beans, but the coffee's still made with love and the service as lovely as ever. It just goes to show that sometimes change is a good thing.
