The catch is, it's £70 per person (I'm conventional so that's £140). Oh, and you have to cook it yourself. I mean, WTAF? I did The Patricia At Home thing in the first lockdown but that was 40 a head for three courses. Nice feed although same story, you had to cook it yourself. 70 a head is pushing it though.

Definitely. If you pulled a lass on a night out you had to ring her landline and actually have a bit of craic before arranging a date. Then you had to hope to god you could remember what she looked like! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm reasonably sure it'd be just as good for all concerned if I donated £20 to a crowdfunder to help keep them afloat and spent the rest on my groceries. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10857 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 A mate exiled in the US is over so I'm meeting him in Newcastle this Saturday night, and he's been recommended Khai Khai on the Quayside.

Christmas Tree 4725 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Not a restaurant and not in Newcastle but a lovely place opened on Seaburn sea front by the people who run the very popular Blacks corner in East Boldon. Probably a bit too posh for me but a place to sit, eat or drink coffee and watch the world go by. It’s actually a converted bus shelter where it just so happens I met my wife 39 years ago today!

Dr Gloom 21924 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Anyone got any good restaurant tips? I’m in town for the match on Tuesday and want to try somewhere new. Was thinking Cook House or similar. I heard there’s a really good taco place that’s worth trying too? All tips welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
