A Northumberland couple say they are 'humbled' after the 'ridiculous and surreal' news that their debut restaurant has been dubbed as one of the most exciting new restaurants in the UK after a glowing review from a top food critic.
Restaurant Pine at Vallum Farm was reviewed by Marina O'Loughlin for the Times, who pondered: "Is this my favourite restaurant of the year?," after sampling the 16-course tasting menu in December last year.
Run by Cal Byerley and Sian Buchan, Restaurant Pine is set in what was once a cow barn with views of the Northumberland landscape on one side and an open kitchen on the other.
