Arbroath is a place in the East coast of Highland in Scotland. This is a wee small fishing village. However, this is a historically remarkable place. The declaration of independence was firstly written in 13th century. The declaration of independence in the USA is referred to this Scottish one when the US independence was declared. Furthermore, when Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury from 1162 until his death in 1170, was assassinated, he was listed and praied as a Christian saint, and Arbroath Abbey nominates him as a saint of this Church institution.
Arbroath is famous for Smokies, the smoked fish, which is made of fish caught in local. This has a quite distinctive taste of fish, which offers us a natural taste of fresh fish with a unique taste of smokiness. This is the place where we can try a real taste of natural Scottish fish. Nonetheless, they no loger sell Fish&Chips made of the locally caught fish. This was a wee disappointing factor. But, Smokies are still made of the locally caught fish, and it is nice to eat such a traditional delicacy in a wee traditional Scottish village.
