City newcomer Missy Milieu's is gearing up to take part in its first Newcastle Restaurant Week with a menu designed to impress.
The bistro-bar just opened in September on Amen Corner, opposite Newcastle Cathedral, serving an all-day menu in vibrant, colourful surroundings which are out to create a chill-out atmosphere by day and a cocktail bar vibe at night. And, with this being its first opportunity to take part in NE1 Newcastle Restaurant Week, it is keen to make the most of the chance to show off what it calls it own twists on classic dishes.
And that means the likes of a bhaji starter combining black pudding with garnishes of apple shavings, mint and pickled carrot and, among the desserts, a coconut panna cotta with unusual combinations of mango salsa, including a touch of chilli, topped with a pineapple crisp and passion fruit pearls to add an extra pop of flavour.
