Sunday Dinner/Carvery = The Toby, near Newcastle Airport
Indian = Mogul Raj, Ponteland
Mongolian = Kublai Khan, Newcastle Quayside
Italian = Due Dieci, Falcons Rugby Ground
Chinese = Waterside Palace, Newcastle Quayside
Running on Empty = Taybarn Gateshead, average quality food, but masses of choice to stuff yourself to the very top.

I sincerely hope those comemnts were tongue in cheek wink - he wanted good places.

OP, there are hundreds of great restaurants around Newcastle - do a search as we've covered this before on here - my suggestion would be Rockafella which is run by the chap who won Hells Kitchen

Not really, I've had good food at all those places, Tay Barn being the exception of course. Maybe not up to Hells Kitchen standards, but good food all the same.

Newcastle is in short supply of very good restaurants.

Cafe 21 is still turning out good food, but sometimes it can miss the mark.
Silk Room is OK too, and I would recommend the Wagyu Beef burger.

Sunderland I have not got a clue about as I never set foot in the place, I do eat in the Black Horse at Boldon a lot when home and only once have had a bad meal there. Also Seaham Hall was good, has gone downhill a bit since Kenny left though.

Has it now, well bugger me! Shows you how long it's been since I ate up there.

Is Vujon on Forth Bank still going - that was always great if a little pricey Indian food.

Where's Kenny cooking now?

+1 For Cafe 21. Average to good, but still better than anything else in the Newcastle area.
