Places to eat in Manchester

[Tony Moanero]

I'm looking for recommendations for Indian and Italian restaurants in Manchester, please. Nothing too fancy, just good, honest food. My wife is a vegetarian and I tend to prefer vegetable curries rather than meat ones. We favour traditional fare over new fangled, of-the-minute stuff. Licensed premises is unimportant, as I don't drink anymore and my wife isn't fussed about having alcohol with her meal.

Haven't a fucking clue, mate. Hope that helps.

I've just googled 'Haven't a fucking clue' but can't seem to find it. Where in Manchester is it, mate?

Here are a few suggestions from about 6 months ago

Just go the curry mile and see which is busy.  You can normally take your own ale in too

It's likely in Salford, mate. Everything in Salford hasn't a fucking clue, that would be my guess.

 

And enjoy your food. Indian is my favourite, you can't beat it.

Doesn't this belong on the FF ?

Last time I was in Manchester, I had a nice cheese & ham roll my mum packed for me so...

 

Yer ma.

Good plan, I tend to stick to liquid diet on the odd occasions I'm required to stray down the East Lancs

San Carlo is supposed to be ok, don't go to Rosso as its owned by that camel lipped cunt.

 

You could always try Greens in Didsbury (15 mins on the tram from town) which is Simon Rimmers vegetarian restaurant. There are plenty of pubs close to it too, as well as the ginger peril that is Stu Monty.

 

Sorry - just read about you not boozing. But still worth a trip out. The bird from Velvet Underground used to live in the street opposite Greens. So did I but I can't sing.

If she likes Japanese, you could try Wagayerma.

I've been to San Carlo. It's expensive and full of cunts.

 

I loved it.

 

Piccolino is likely  to be a bit cheaper bit still a bit wanky (I've only been to the Liverpool version).

I should have said, I'd prefer to avoid chain restaurants.

I've heard those mancs get up to some weird shit but eating chains?

 

Fucking perverts, the lot of them.

Narwaab is supposed to be ok but not been for years. If you are set on curry then the curry mile is best.

Can't believe Mo Tucker used to live in Manchester.

[Woo]

Akbar's is fantastic for a curry, can't go wrong.

 

Might as well just close the thread now.

Good shout for Greens, Bistro 156 round the corner on Burton Road is excellent as well. And not a chain place.

Thanks everyone.

My sister is the manager of Australasia. She's a complete cunt. Don't go there.

Yes, but that waitress...I still dream of her.

I don't know if she still works there, my sister & I aren't on speaking terms.

 

Shame. I enjoyed eating there and taking as many freebies as I could get!

She finds it hard to work nowadays, what with being under my patio.

Avoid Curry mile. It's full of shisha bars and nothing worthwhile.

 

Try Zouk for Curry and Don Giovanni's for Italian. Other than that you have Akbars which is a chain and you are always feel in a rush. Eastzeast which you have in Liverpool too.

 

Mowgli in the Corn exchange is worthwhile too but it more like street food but does have good vegetarian options.

Tony's just been spotted in a veg curry place in Leeds - going to start a "Best Burger in York" thread next
