Diners in Durham can try the city’s best restaurants as part of Durham Restaurant Week – which returns January 31-February 7.
Newcomers Fiik, Zaap Thai, Jozef’s Riverside Bar and Restaurant, and Café at The Quarter have all signed up for the event.
Fiik – launched by four friends with decades of industry experience in December – will be offering a special four-course menu for £25. Guests can expect dishes such as Skrei cod served with pickled green strawberries, winter greens and Jerusalem artichoke cream – as well as beef tartare with coal oil, brioche, truffle, parmesan and cured yolk.
As well as new restaurants, favourites such as Fat Hippo, Faru, Coarse, Isla by Coarse, Tapas Factory and Rio Brazilian Steakhouse are all taking part too.
Paul Howard, Durham BID manager, said: “Restaurant Week is one of our most popular events, where diners can experience the exceptional and diverse venues we have in the city. While January and February are typically quieter months for hospitality businesses, Restaurant Week drives foodies to the city, boosting our local economy.”
As well as restaurants, Durham’s cafés will be offering £5 and £10 deals – including coffee and cake, and soup and sandwich offers.
