Newcastle Restaurant Week: 27th Jan – 2nd Feb

I love Newcastle Restaurant Week. What a brilliant idea (I applaud you, whoever thought of it). Get the nation dining! Get them trying different restaurants and get them to do it all for either £10 or £15 per person. It’s fantastic. You can view the full list of restaurants participating here, and also find outContinue reading “Newcastle Restaurant Week: 27th Jan – 2nd Feb”

The Butterfly Cabinet

After a morning spent segwaying for my sister’s birthday, we decided to head up to The Butterfly Cabinet in Heaton for brunch/lunch. My sister had been a couple of times before and really liked the place, and we thought we would give it a try! The first thing I noticed was the quirky interior, andContinue reading “The Butterfly Cabinet”

Mannaza

One wet night as we trundled through Newcastle city centre to meet up with some friends for dinner, we passed this little Korean BBQ place. We stared through the windows to see a bustling restaurant packed to the brim, with everyone eating delicious, warm food that was steaming from their bowls. It looked so comforting.Continue reading “Mannaza”

The Fat Hippo

If you’re a uni student and you live in the Jesmond area, chances are that you’ve dined at least once at The Fat Hippo. However, when we visited on a busy evening one night, it wasn’t just packed with students but couples and families as well. We hadn’t made a reservation (not knowing how busyContinue reading “The Fat Hippo”

LuigiKhans

We were so lucky to be invited to LuigiKhans for a dinner date. It was exactly what we needed! There’s this advertisement near to my house that I think is absolute genius. It’s advertising a Punjabi restaurant and there’s a picture of a naan bread with 3 words written across it: ‘There’s naan better’. IContinue reading “LuigiKhans”

Shark Club – Wing Wednesday

Our friend Dan happily wrote about his recent chicken wings experience with MrJ. Enjoy! I’ll tell you straight off, me and wings had a big fall out several years back when I made the fatal error of trying some cheap microwave chicken wings from Iceland. Why, you ask? All I can say is: student. Broke.Continue reading “Shark Club – Wing Wednesday”

Archer’s ice cream is made with local luxury milk by the pedigree Newmoor herd of Jersey cows. Their ice cream parlour in Jesmond has a rotating list of ice cream flavours, with at leastContinue reading “Archer’s Jersey Ice Cream”
