We usually head to Tomahawk steakhouse, which is about to open a new branch in Morpeth, when we’re in the mood for, well… steak (surprise) but recently we’ve enjoyed the new breakfast menu. It includes these American pancakes with caramelised banana, strawberries and salted toffee sauce; there’s a superb full English; Mexican-style scrambled eggs with tomato and spring onion salsa and guacamole; and steak (naturally) – a 5oz flat iron with two fried eggs and crispy potatoes. And if that doesn’t set you up for the day, we don’t know what will.
