One of Newcastle's newest eateries taking part in its first Restaurant Week event is going all-out with a special menu deal including Newcastle Brown Ale-battered cod and fennel herb ravioli.
Hugo Brasserie, which opened on The Side in May, in the Grade ll-listed building which was occupied for years by the Big Mussel, is among 112 venues - seven of them first-timers - signed up to NE1 Newcastle Restaurant Week which got under way on Monday. Throughout its seven-day run, the eateries, spread across the city, are offering diners a selection of reduced-price deals and special menus costing £10, £15 or £20.
For its debut at this August's event - the 21st Newcastle Restaurant Week, which has been taking place twice-yearly except in the pandemic - Hugo is whipping up a pick of dishes from its menu of modern European cuisine which also will include some local touches such as Newcastle Brown Ale-battered cod.
