The owner of the Northumberland restaurant that took the crown on Channel 4's Come Dine With Me: The Professionals has announced a celebration night with its customers.
Caboose in Blyth took the £1,000 prize after getting a score of 29 out of 40 from its rivals at River Beat on Newcastle Quayside and Savoury Fix in Hetton. And though they're planning a big celebration at the restaurant on Friday July 22, owner Marc McPake has said that he and head chef Mark Hubble had achieved the 'main objective' of coming across well and doing themselves proud.
There were a few moments of friction on the show, particularly between Marc and Mark, who were nicknamed Dapper and Jazzy respectively by the other contestants, and River Beat chef Andy. There were also some interesting comments about Caboose's food, with husband and wife duo Daimon and Steph from Savoury Fix describing it as "like and old kettle or a new kettle".
