Absolute swill. About 5 different curries, all the same flavour just a different colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DigOutYourSoul Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Was in the Greek at Gracie's in the ferry last weekend and have to say the food was amazing and it was nice and busy so a decent atmosphere. Actually enjoyed the food more than Sol y Sombra. Was in the Thai in monifieth this week which was decent, portions could have been a little bigger but service and atmosphere were decent.Food scene around here just now is pretty good. Somewhere good to each for pretty much every type of food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moved to Monifieth about three years ago but never tried the Thai place; heard good things though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Bump Any of the good lads have any views on the relative merits of castlehill v Tayberry v the Newport or anything else nearby for a tasting menu? I tried tripadvisor but given they have Tahini as #3 restaurant in Dundee I'll give their advice a bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Tried a place called the Beiderbeckes which is around the corner from The Globe pub and that's absolutely class. The atmosphere is labelled as a Jazz restaurant and it's pretty damn classy. Completely underrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamdunk Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Not tried the Newport yet, but it's in the Michelin guide. The tayberry has the guy who used to be the chef in castlehill which I think is slightly worse now he's left. Still really nice tho. Tayberry is quality, I had john dory with a macaroni 'fish finger', but I haven't tried tasting menu there. I like tahini as well tho, so u may not be interested in opinion.

Was in tahini a couple of weeks ago, I fairly enjoyed the first few courses but I'm positive all the meat was pre cooked and microwaved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the meat course isn't the best, but the hot and cold mezzes are very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has Budweiser but not the American one, it's from the Czech Republic and does lagers/beers/ales for each European country but by far it's most popular is the German beer they have on tap which name escapes me. In terms of food, it's quite a classy bistro even has a substantial vegan section which doesn't really interest me. It's speciality judging from the menu is their stir fry. They do a whole host of different versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do absolutely brilliant burgers and if you ask them to make you something that's not on the menu they will happily do it. No idea why the moved to where they are now though, it's a pain to get to if you're walking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
