The curing house and the vine when they were decent, Persian cottage

We was in the Persian cottage last month, sadly wasn't impressed.

Probably Sardi's in Darlo. Long since gone but had some wonderful food in there. Had quite a few Boro shirts on the walls from our Italian players Rav, Festa, Branca, etc.

Another vote for Peppermill in Billog. Awful decor, lovely people and amazing food every time.

Does anybody remember Cafe Sorelle around 2004/5 which was in one of those little houses, a few up from where the Baker Street Kitchen is now? Tables were in what looked like a small living room and Barely enough room to sit 10 people. That was really lovely.

Final shout for Chicken Marashala from Lewis' restaurant on Linny Road too

Page 3 and no mention of the Europa.
Parmesan with Spag Bol not chips at least twice a week. Always after a nightclub as well, usually Madison.
The joys of youth.

I loved Spiro’s back in the day, even though I was based down south then. We had my mum’s 60th there….she’s 86 now. Mind you, the food on Virgo’s is excellent. Spiro still cooks some great fish dishes.

Used to be an excellent Italian in Sowerby Bridge, going back 20 years. Mama Mia?

Never paid it a visit. Long gone I think. Sowerby Bridge is rapidly becoming the new Hebden Bridge in some ways. Not a bad thing. Some really good food options and decent bars. And the Puzzle is back open again.

What did you order?

I don’t think there’s better grilled lamb in town

The County in Aycliffe Village when Andrew Brown was chef was always top notch .....

Don't know if it's still open, but used to love the Silk Road Chinese Restaurant in Camberwell, London. Proper Chinese food, with different regional dishes, not the cack rubbish you get from most Chinese places.

We always had a family affinity with Borges.

Thinking about the seasonal minted lamb makes me happy.

I used to live minutes from The Silk Road and it was indeed excellent. I was walking past there recently and it is still open. I'm now fired up to go and join one of its long tables soon.

Used to like Mamma Vittorias on Linthorpe Rd, just along from the Crown. Showing my age, I think it closed in the 90s? Other than that, Kaminaki in Stockton. Sadly that's another covid casualty.

Gianni and Narina ,who ran it were fantastic hosts,always welcoming .Food was always spot on.
