New culinary tasting experience on the menu at Dobson & Parnell

Food lovers can now indulge in a gastronomic journey thanks to a new tasting menu being launched at Dobson & Parnell on Newcastle’s Quayside.

Troy Terrington, chef patron of Dobson & Parnell, which opened on Queen Street last year, has crafted a tasting menu, together with matching wines, showcasing the very best of refined British cuisine.

The new tasting menu will change daily but customers can experience dishes like North Shields crab and parsley risotto; Cured Skrei cod with dill; Glazed pigs cheek; Waterford House Farm lamb; Yorkshire rhubarb ricotta, and Valrhona‘manjari’ salt caramel with peanut butter.

A vegetarian tasting menu highlights some of the region’s finest vegetables on offer as well. This menu will also change daily and include dishes like Preserved vegetable salad, north country shoots, slow cooked egg charred broccoli with pickled radish and sourdough; North country beetroots with celeriac remoulade and Potato pasta, mushroom, truffle and parmesan.

The seven-course tasting menu is priced at £65 per person or £100 with wine pairing. It is available from 5.30 – 9pm between Tuesday and Saturday and guests are advised to allow around three hours to enjoy the tasting menu experience.

Troy said: “Launching a tasting menu has always been our aim since we opened so we’re delighted to finally offer it to our customers. We work closely with small, local producers and are always impressed by their passion for food and the quality of their produce. The new tasting menu not only allows us to take our guests on a culinary journey and experience new and exciting flavour combinations, but also showcases the work of the wonderful suppliers we have on our doorstep.
