They say you should never come between a Frenchman and his lunch, or between a member of the appetite team and his/her lunch, and at The French Quarter in Newcastle long lunches and dinners are very much on the menu. Owned by Cedric Boc-ho and Catherine Metcalfe, this is home to French wine and bottled beers, small sharing dishes, cheese and charcuterie plates, and meals including escargots, moules, beouf bourguignon, crème brulee and tarte tatin. Bon appetit!
