“They’ve taken me under their wing.” Chef Dane Smart talks about Manchester’s Molly House and its new menu
Dane Smart has come a long way since his pot-washing days at LadyBoy, a Thai restaurant in Melbourne.
Food Review: Canto, Ancoats, Manchester
As I write this, we’re about a fortnight away from six months into lockdown. I’m still not exactly sure of the rules as Matt Hancock and his cronies play hide-and-seek with our very own Andy Burnham and the North West has more COVID-19 spikes than a punk hairdo.
Food Review: Gaucho, Manchester
Finally, after five long months, I find myself reviewing an actual live restaurant with actual people, actual food and actual wine. The restaurant in question is Gaucho, an Argentinian grill off Manchester’s Deansgate, located in a beautifully converted church with the organ still intact but not functioning.
Takeaway review: Dishoom, Manchester
Any writer of restaurant reviews will, as a matter of professional courtesy, read the competition.
Takeaway Review: Siam Smiles, Manchester
For many years, my Thursday treat was a green chicken curry at Siam Smiles on George Street in Manchester’s Chinatown.
Takeaway Review: The Spärrows, Manchester
Strange times. Especially if you live on your own and just want a hug.
Takeaway Review: Fattoush, Liverpool
Lebanese café and eatery Fattoush in Liverpool deserves its five-star Tripadvisor ratings – and that’s coming from a regular who’s eaten in and ordered takeaways there for the past two years.
Takeaway Review: Proove, West Didsbury
During lockdown, when you’re wandering into your kitchen for the millionth time and opening the fridge before closing it again, you might have hit the point when it’s time to think about ordering a takeaway.
Food Review: Wahaca, Corn Exchange, Manchester
Manchester has never been well served by Mexican food.
Food Review: Canto, Ancoats, Manchester
It was a disgustingly wet Friday 13th and the day after the General Election when I found Helen Nugent, Editor of Northern Soul, at the bar of Canto.
