I wonder if the star presenter enjoyed the delicacies? During his vacation in Scotland, US presenter Jimmy Fallon (51) was spontaneously invited to a special dinner by Scottish soldiers - complete with bagpipe music and a kilt.

Fallon had been visiting the grounds of Balmoral Castle in Aberdeenshire during his vacation when he was recognized by a royal bodyguard, as the PA news agency reported. He invited him to dinner in the barracks without further ado. There, the Tonight Show presenter appeared in a Scottish kilt and was greeted by soldiers from the Royal Regiment of Scotland with bagpipe music. A traditional scotch egg was served as an appetizer.

Fallon also signed a guest book, a time-honored tradition for guests of honour. "What began as a chance meeting near Balmoral turned into a great evening," said Major Thomas Blair according to PA. It's not every day you bump into a Hollywood star. The soldiers were delighted to welcome the US presenter "in true Scottish style".
