Mannaza Korean Restaurant, Newcastle

Mannaza Korean Restaurant 7

Mannaza Korean Restaurant has been at the top of my must-try list for a few year now but something always came up every time I tried. Was it fate? I don’t know but I have finally been!

My brother in law lives in South Korea, formerly Gwangju and now Soeul, so when he came home to visit in the summer it seemed only right to take our Korean BBQ guru to help show us the ropes.

Barca Art Bar & Restaurant – Tynemouth

Barca Tynemouth

Bit out of our stomping ground but as Paul’s Dad lives in Tynemouth, we made the trip North for a good old fashioned Sunday Roast at Barca.

Barca Art Bar & Restaurant is slap bang amongst the action in the middle of Front Street with a cosy, quirky bar downstairs and a more spacious and even quirkier dining room upstairs. With an obvious nod to the Art part of the name, the walls are lined with pieces from local artists both for display and sale.

I was tasked with whipping up a signature cocktail that captured the essence of Barcelona.
