The ScotsCare podcast - with Marcus Railton

If you're a Scot and a Londoner, you might have heard of the Shoap, a deli in Islington that serves some amazing traditional Scottish scran, giving you a taste of home. It's the brainchild of Gregg Boyd, an economist turned food entreprenuer. Marcus and Gregg talk about how he got the project running, Scots food and the difference in culture for a Scot coming and living in London.
