Now who's gone all foody?
PAUL'S DAD
P.S. Glad you had a similar experience to ours.
Why did I know this comment would follow?
I hold my hand up and apologise for editing your foodicism - I hadn't realised it could be so good.
If we ever meet up the crisps are on me.
As an act of contrition I quote in full Jerry Edis' remarks.
"The special menu tonight, which I assume will be a regular feature, was absolutely excellent, offering variety and, at £10 for two courses or £13 for three, remarkable value. Mrs.Edis and I both went for the hot-smoked salmon with cheese and onion waffle, a delightful starter with big, flaky chunks of succulent salmon. For mains, I had silver bream with courgette and preserved lemon cous-cous. The couscous was beautifully flavoured and the fish had, from somewhere, a hint of tandoori about it: an intriguing and spicy mix of flavours. Paul’s mum had cassoulet with confit chicken, Toulouse sausage and herb crust and pronounced it excellent – this from someone who normally avoids chicken in restaurants on the grounds that “I can do chicken at home…” The portions for starters and mains were not huge, but that suited us fine, as it20left room for desserts: a beautifully clean lemon posset and a double chocolate cake with vanilla mascarpone, respectively. Without drinks, our bill worked out at £31, which included a 10% service charge – as I said before, remarkable value and not at the expense of choice or quality. We ate recently for more than twice the price elsewhere in Newcastle (I lie, it was Gateshead!) and went home disappointed."
Savile Exchange, Friday? Mine's salt and vinegar.
You can have salt or vinegar - not both!
Amazing that this restaurant gets so busy for a monday night, and so reasonable, sure do wish it was local to me!
