Dr Gloom 21911 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Used to love Sachin’s. Can’t remember what it’s called but I went to a really nice curry place a few years back on the Gateshead side of the Tyne bridge, just over from the Hilton.

Takeaway pizza technology has advanced; curry pizzas, 37 inch efforts, a Japanese pizza with sweetcorn and whitebait.

Howmanheyman 33096 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Times have indeed moved on in the takeaway game. Can't remember the last 'anecdote' about spunk being found in an Indian curry from a definitely not racist. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 15518 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I'm appreciating these recommendations too, because I'm visiting with the fella soon and I need to soft-sell him on the idea of having Newcastle on the list of potential destinations when we move out of smelly London. I'll join the praise for Dabbawal btw, good grub. The West Jesmond branch is in an interesting building, but obviously no need to go out of your way to go there when they've got a branch right in the city centre.

GrahamTaylor5 880 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I went to a Tex-Mex place on Ocean Road last week, the beef has to be the nicest thing that I have ever eaten. It was called El Tio. I would highly recommend 👌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was absolutely amazing. I am not a fan of South Shields but I am 100% going to be going back there again. The waiter was great and the food was phenomenal. I am not normally that bothered about eating out but I am quite keen to sort a date night for me and the Mrs. The only negative was my kids loved the hats and the bloke let them take them home haha.

I'd give it a go but it would be the equivalent of driving through the iron curtain of East Germany to spend a bit of time in the British sector of Berlin for an hour or so before heading back so it's a no from me. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamTaylor5 880 Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Currently sat in Coleman's in South Sheilds. I don't get it. Average at best. It is moments like this that reminds me why I have a strong dislike of South Sheilds. That and their ice cream which is also average at best yet they shout about how amazing it is.

Holden McGroin 6580 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I tend to dip in and out of toontastic due to workload. Whatever happened to Stevie by the way?

No idea what it’s like as I’ve never had the chance to go…… but there’s a place called quay ingredient under the Tyne bridge that always used to have a great reputation for breakfasts.
