Write a review
Le Rivage is the fine dining restaurant of The Copthorne Hotel Newcastle, and serves traditional French cuisine with a modern influence. The hotel is situated on the Quayside with views overlooking the River Tyne. The blue and gold decor gives the restaurant a feeling of restrained elegance and the atmosphere is quiet and relaxing without being 'precious'. A good spot for a romantic celebratory meal or an all-important deal clinching lunch. What's cooking: Tian of melon pearls with seasonal fruit and berries with a port, redcurrant and elderflower syrup; Thai crab broth scented with lemongrass, coriander, chilli and lime leaf; seared king scallops and pancetta with seasonal leaves and hazelnut vinaigrette dressing, cannon of lamb on a minted potato cake with ratatouille, charlotte of aubergine and courgette filled with Mediterrannean vegetables and halloumi cheese, fillet of seabass with a plum and star anise compote and soba noodles, half a baby pineapple filled with a minestrone of fruits and topped with mascarpone sorbet; panna cotta with balsamic roast strawberries, baked bananas soaked in rum with a glazed sabayon.
