Tapas by the Tyne and other Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom Restaurant Reviews

Restaurant Name: La Tasca

Just set back from the quayside near the Millenium bridge is La Tasca, one of a chain of tapas restaurants, which tempted us with its array of Tapas dishes. Good selection of veggie and meat options.

Favorite Dish: We enjoyed lunch here before we set off on a walking tour of Newcastle. The smoked tuna was delicious as were the meatballs and aubergine bake. We had several dishes as you can see from the pic - all quite tasty but the only disadvantages with tapas is that portions are small (hence you need to try a few dishes) and you just get to think ooh thats tasty when its alll gone! Paella would have ben choice as a single dish - but only available in the evenings - could have as a tapas dish at lunchtime bizzarely!

Restaurant Name: Various in China town

Newcastle has its own small China town with supermarkets and several restaurants. There looked some great buffet restauants - eat as much as you can/dare type - that looked very tasty . In particular Dragon House looked inviting judged by all the dishes we saw through the window as we walked past. Shame we had already etean, next time then ;-)
