ajax_andy 0 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Ate at Red Mezze for the 2nd time last night... hadn't been back since the 1st time just over a year ago despite loving the place (we don't eat out very often and I like to try new places when we do). Anyway the gap over over 12 months was a ridiculous error as yet again the food was AMAZING! In fact I remember stating last time that it had been the best grub I'd had in Newcastle, and having been back again I uttered the same words. We had a Calamares starter to share which was excellent... then I had the mixed grill and the missus had some sort of Fajita type thing. My god it was good! Every type of meat on my plate was BBQ'd to perfection, tender and tasty as hell... also a lovely spicy salsa and rice came with the dish. Didn't try the missus meal as it had mushrooms and creme in it and I don't eat either but she assured me it was superb. She had 2 glasses of wine and I had 2 beers. Total price £39 Honestly if you haven't been here then you need to go ASAP. Ask for a table downstairs though as the upstairs bit is too cramped and busy for my liking.

Lake Bells tits 1 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) Sachins is canny like, has to be one of the best punjabi kitchens in england. From the mid-90s through the beginning of 2001 their sauces were inclined to be a little watery, but recently its taken an upturn for the better and as such the restaurant really is top notch. The owner, Bob, is also a very pleasant bloke and well done to his crew for raising the standards to elevated heights. Try the Chicken Jalfrezi with a Peshwari Naan, its like sex in your mouth Edited September 3, 2012 by Lake Bells tits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 17741 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I live opposite the bilash in cullercoats. Best curry house I've been to. Really? And you being from South Shields originally too? I went there once and frankly found it wierd. Like sitting in someone's front room with all the local neighbours wanting to get to know you. They all said 'we never go anywhere else' and I was just thinking 'never again'. Food was ok but nowt special. Shared a carafe of wine which was the worst I have ever tasted outside Greece. I'm increasingly not a fan of curries though I admit. Probably prefer Rasa or Vujon if I'm honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is basically a house, but I've had dozens of carry outs and while the quality is variable, when its good, it's great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajax_andy 0 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Noosh opposite the old Bar M (tup tup) in the town. Moroccan food always on groupon. Excellent Fancied trying this place a few times but always ended up plumping for somewhere else. Love a bit of Morrocan food but as I'm off to Marrakech in 5 weeks I'll have to give it a miss as doubt anything wil compare to the food over there.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Had another great meal at the Black Horse Boldon last night. Kediree and battered soft boiled egg starter followed by rump. All washed down with a very nice merlot. Service and waiting staff spot on as well. (Chef gave me the recipe for the kedgeree so I will be giving that a whizz soon. Made with a lovely curry oil).

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Don't ever get yourself into a position where buying Tesco Value dark rum seems like a good idea. It wasn't and isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
