Papa Lazaru 0 Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 King Neptune Landmark's not too bad either. Agree with that. King Neptune wins, though they don't do buffets so may not be much use for the person who started the thread. Landmark was started by the people originally at the King Neptune but for some reason on the lunchtimes has basically the menu from the king neptune but with less choice! Its nice, but King Neptune wins for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44261 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 They're opening up a Wagamama in Eldon Square, overlooking Old Eldon Square. Now Renton, I know that it's a chain, and I've only been there once, but it was nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21800 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 (edited) the dragon house is my fave although mangos is probably best for dim sum... Edited November 27, 2006 by Fancy Dan lecturer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc-mag 1 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 China Street tbh Aye it's true that like. Chinese food is well dodgy btw. I would dread to see what goes on in the kitchens. Unclean tbh. OPINIONATED! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21231 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Most the restaurants on China "street" are OK but I really would draw the line at a buffet. The Waterfront on the quayside is good too but a bit out of the way. As it happens though I like my local one on Tynemouth Front street most of all. My problem with chains btw isn't necessarily quality, it's that they are destroying independents and creating a restaurant monoculture. However, I really can't see this being an issue in the case of Chinese restaurants, where there are plenty of decent ones around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really do buffets either mind. I won't do buffets at Indians either. Spence Terrace Chinese Takeaway in North Shields is class and a matter of seconds from my front door. Proper China towns are horrible anyway though. The one in San Francisco is pretty famous, but I ate there once and wouldn't go back due to the impossible-to-identify meats they served up. I'm pretty sure the chicken wasn't chicken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc-mag 1 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Chinese buffets are scandelous. £5 for all you can eat.! Neebody ought to complain if they get foodpoisining or (like Renton) chronic shits. When I've been I've left the meat well alone. Some of the veg dishes are canny though tbf.
