Pleased To Meet You

After beginning as a popular bar, Pleased to Meet You now offers patrons the chance to eat quality food alongside their specialty drinks, with the development of an all-new restaurant space.

PTMY was famous for a particular passion, serving an amazing range of gins, in the heart of Newcastle, England. With the restaurant opening, people now have the opportunity to dine on more than a martini lunch.

This marriage of characters is also reflected in the food style where Executive Chef Dave Kennedy mixes French techniques with the modern British approach to food.

The featured ingredients in the menu designed by Dave come from farms, coasts and woodlands from the north east of England. “My aim is to offer a different dining experience. What’s on the menu is driven by seasonal produce”.

“We’re known locally as the go-to venue”, explains Dave. “So the introduction of the restaurant was a natural response to the popularity of this destination”.

The restaurant, with a capacity of 100, is often filled to the brim with eager diners wanting to meet and greet these new fresh tastes. The overwhelming response to this new adventure has been very positive.

In The Kitchen

Blue Seal UKIn fine-tuning the fit out of the kitchen, Dave Kennedy’s priority was for robustness and reliability as PTMY was sure to be a hard-working kitchen.

After consulting Crosbys, Dave went ahead and had installed from the Blue Seal Range, a fryer, a heavy duty griddle, and 80 litre bratt pan and two ovens to meet varying needs (G506D and G570). “I have a good relationship with Crosbys and my decision came about largely due to their advice” says Dave.

“This heavy duty equipment represented excellent value for money and the durability and reliability I have with Blue Seal gives me the peace of mind that I need.”

“I need kitchen appliances that are going to survive long term use – and I have this with Blue Seal” happily reported Dave.
