I don't know about any of you but I have a feeling I'm going to be leaving lockdown at least 3 sizes larger! It seems that people are finding their own way of dealing with this most unusual and difficult time; some are gardening, some are becoming yoga gurus, there's the creative crafters and finally there are the foodies.
You may be a combination of all of these - well done you! - or you may simply have announced via your social media if choice that you're single handedly aiming to support your local takeaway in these troubled times. Hooray!
People are finding their own way of dealing with this most unusual and difficult time.This list brings together the food outlets currently open In Perth and Kinross during the Coronavirus lockdown. We've split them into specialist shops, supermarkets and takeaways to make things a little easier for you.
