  2. Hiya @ayyysassy ‘ere ! Here’s ten things I ate that I really, really enjoyed this month and in no particular order. I enjoyed doing this round up at the end of last year, so I’m thinking of making it a monthly thing. Lucky for you guys because you get to hear me waffle on even more. The army stew from Chimaek was a bit of me, I see food like this all the time online and have always wanted to try one. Vietnamese rice rolls from Wow Banh Mi - these were delicious and the woman sitting next to me taught me the proper way to eat them which I loved. Sips and Dips do hummus awarma, and if you thought hummus couldn’t get better, add lamb & melted ghee - it’s so, so tasty, and bonus points for the hummus being so smooth. There’s a Portuguese restaurant up near my mum and dads that I love going to. I got the Caldo Verde, a soup made out of cabbage, sausage and potato. It’s mint and we paired it with Vinho Verde (which I bloody love). I love ramen and a top one for me is the lamb tantan from New Wave. It’s spicy, creamy and everything I look for in a bowl of noodles. Pie is a staple for me, and the dauphinoise potato one from Trof has quickly shot up my list as one of the best pies in Manchester. You must have walked past Gerry’s in Piccadilly Gardens, and their jianbing is INCREDIBLE. I got the salt and pepper one, and I’m definitely returning. The chateaubriand from Hawksmoor is next level, but what tops it off is the sides! A tip - order the mash and add the bone marrow to it, thank me later. Right. Let me take a moment to speak about the cheesecake from Sexy Fish… I genuinely think it’s one of the best desserts I’ve ever eaten. If you’ve seen the show Friends, it’s what I imagine the cheesecake in that to taste like. Finally, the charcuterie board from Casa Italia might have been the most impressive thing I’ve ever seen (make sure to wash it down with the pistachio liqueur). See you next month x

  1. [INVITE - AD] I was kindly invited to The Dessert Room Manchester. Coincidentally I decided to go on the same day as visiting @Gaijinmcr on Stockport Rd and realised The Dessert Room MCR are based just upstairs. I'd say food downstairs and dessert upstairs is a shout. It's nice and cosy with a nice little flower wall and swing to give it that extra touch with the decor. Perfect for those dessert shots 📸 They asked me to be completely honest in my review so here it is. Doughnuts - You can order a box of 6 doughnuts with a choice of various toppings. Let me tell you, the doughnuts banged! 💥 They were fresh, warm and fluffy. I was actually saying to the owner how Blackpool doughnuts are so good and low and behold these doughnuts gave those vibes! I have to say, everything was fresh, quality ingredients and the prices were very reasonable. Customer service was spot on 👌🏽. I really enjoy it when you see small businesses do a great job. They should be shown just as much support as those big chains. Make sure to check them out. They currently offer collection and delivery, though they will be open to dine in very soon.

  2. After visiting some friends In Batley, we thought to check this place out. On arriving, we were greeted and taken to our table. We were handed menu’s 5 minutes later. We were wondering when someone would approach us to take our order, ended up going to the till as that’s where you are meant to order but nobody told us. We ordered   Dynamite prawns – These were nice, crispy tempura batter with a spicy siracha aioli and spring onions. Tempura chicken – Tempura battered chicken. This was not nice, bland, more batter than chicken.I think we ordered this by mistake! 🤦🏽‍♂️ Volcano Roll Sushi - Tempura chicken, carrots, cucumber, avocado, Japanese mayo, Siracha, deep fried with Japanese breadcrumbs. This was nice, as 1 of us doesn't like sushi at all! so was a twist to your usual fish style sushi. Mongolian Beef – Angus beef caramelised with dark soy sauce, garlic, and spring onions. We ordered this with egg noodles. This was decent, nothing wow but not bad either. Rock Lobster – Flame seared, Japanese mayo, garlic ponzu sauce. This was the best thing we ordered, you get half a lobster, and it was so creamy! Yum 😍 This was by far the best thing we had ordered. The service here was very poor, we didn’t have any cutlery so we asked if we could get some. You would also assume you would be given starter plates either before the food arrives or with the food when it arrives, right? Nope 🤦🏽‍♂️ not here. We had to get up on 2 separate occasions to go to the counter to ask for cutlery and side plates. As there were no waiters around, not sure where they were tbh. This was very disappointing. Once we had received our starters, we still hadn’t been bought our drinks! So, guess what, we had to make a third trip to the counter! What we don’t understand is when you walk in, the vibe and the layout is this cool funky fancy restaurant with. Though from the service it felt more like a takeaway, having to go all the way to the counter to order, to ask for cutlery etc. Personally, the only thing we enjoyed from here was the Rock Lobster. Other than that,it was just an average place. Have you been? #lobster #asian #tempura #fusion #halal #Japanese #foodie #beef

  1. ✉️🍴MY FIRST INVITE🍴✉️ @dongiovannimcr kindly invited me to there launch of there new Sunday lunch menu on 4th October!👏🏼 So as it was there 1st day launching, it was bound to have some teething problems😬. These were quickly ironed out by all staff, which I must say were very helpful💯! 🥂💰THEY ARE DOING 50% OFF THROUGHOUT OCTOBER!!🥂💰 Monday-friday😍👏🏼 We ordered: * BRUSCHETTA AL POMODORO - both were off the al la carte menu, (not included with Sunday roast menu) 10/10 * BRUSCHETTA AI FUNGHI - 10/10 Sunday roast menu: * chicken supreme, served with - roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese, cabbage, parsnips, carrots, Yorkshire pudding (HUGE) with unlimited gravy. 9/10 It would of got a 10/10, however, we originally ordered the lamb. But when this was served, the cuts were quite fatty. (Wouldn’t order again until kitchen have new supplier. Also didn’t serve mint sauce which we were gutted about, had we decided to keep the lamb) So we changed to chicken which knocked it out the park!😍 Deserts🍦: * Sticky toffee pudding with vanilla icecream- (this is included with the Sunday lunch menu of a set price at £19.95) 10/10 * Chocolate fondue with vanilla icecream 10/10 📍Location: Don Giovanni - Manchester @dongiovannimcr AMAZING location for a few drinks after🍾 ⏰: Could NOT fault the staff. Ironed out any issue without hesitance and couldn’t be any more attentive. Fast service. Recommend booking desired time slot as it was very busy. 10/10 #food #foodiesofinstagram #foodporn #foodie #foodphotography #foodstagram #foodlover #foodideas #foodforthought #foodforfoodies #foodaholic #foodinspiration #foodnetwork #foodpassion #foodblog #invite #sunday #roast #3course #dongiovanni #manchester #amazing #recommend #review #italian

  2. 🥂💗BOTTOMLESS BRUNCH💗🥂 Ok so, I’ve had quite a few messages asking me where’s best for bottomless brunch in Manchester?.... here we have it!!! Not only is bottomless brunch my absolute FAVE, but when you have high expectations, and every single of one them gets met... you can’t complain can you🤩💯🙋🏼‍♀️ @menagerie_restaurant you certainly pulled it out the bag❤️😍 I’ve been to a few different bottomless brunches.. eg: BLVD, Revolution, Manahatta... and this certainly trumps them all. For £45pp (I know, abit steep, but worth every penny for the experience) you receive the following: * Choice of 2 plates of the menu (I have posted menu on last photo) * 2 hour table time (we were allowed to stay longer due to them not being that busy) 🥞 We ordered: * Full English breakfast * French toast * Buttermilk pancakes 🥂 Drinks are a choice of: * Prosecco, Bloody Mary, Mimosa or Kikis fruit punch. It was my friends birthday so we also paid for a £4 birthday plate for a surprise which was lovely (shown in pic 5). They also surprised us with 4 free shots and sparklers at our table🥳😍 📍Location: Menagerie Restaurant @menagerie_restaurant - Manchester City centre ⏰: So a big thank you and shoutout to Chloe who gave 10/10 customer service throughout our time there. Especially with the fact the new Tier 3 restrictions had been put in place. Drinks were constantly flowing and we didn’t have to wait to get anyone’s attention for drinks (as I’m eager to make the most of my money lol) We actually returned a few hours later as we enjoyed it that much!

  3. @sipsndips.uk you have stolen my heart & can I please have it back now?? You need to go & try the BEST Lebanese 🇱🇧 in the whole of Manchester, these guys know what they are doing and really are the best Lebanese in town, from their finely chopped tabouleh to the date and pistachio milkshake every damn thing on that menu that we tasted blew our minds! We started with mint tea and their famous frozen lemonade followed by a tour around their menu! Mixed dips for one (best labneh and falafel 🧆 wow) Hummus Awerma (the hot butter & lamb one WOW) Man’oucheh Spinach & pomegranate (that was a stand out for us! I need it again already) Spicy potato cubes (a nice addition with a crunch) Lamb Kofta Tagine with rice (I also need this again) And a chicken shawarma 🥙 wrap to finish 10/10 We were stuffed so no dessert just Sand coffee (if you want to be awake all night) and a chai latte for me which I adored and just got annoyed that I can’t make mine as good at home. They are based on Stockport Rd Levenshume & we literally can’t wait to take our family and go back, I would say the prices too are so good and all the juices are made fresh in house which is such a big appeal for me! Staff were the favourite part we love you guys and your amazing family run business, see you soon! Big thank you to @liammarleyeats for his big recommendation for this one! #manchesterfoodies #manchesterfoodblogger #lebanesefood #levenshume #lebanesecuisine #hummusrecipe #labneh #fallafel #datenight

  3. New on the blog! Katsu is NOT a sauce. Link in my bio or go to elsaeats.com⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Did you know that katsu is not a sauce? This is a common mistake within the UK specifically. A quick look at the #KatsuCurryPolice hashtag on Twitter yields many posts disgruntled by this phenomenon. My blog post details what katsu actually is and some historical information about the origins of katsu.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Of course, I share with you good places for getting good katsu!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @osakalocal.mcr has been my firm favourite since she started trading back in April 2019*⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @yuzumanchester is in the Good Food Guide consistently for many years for a reason*⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @yane.mcr is new on the block within Manchester and are run by a couple of British Born Chinese*⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @manzokustreetfood serves both chicken and tofu katsu curry. Gina, who runs this, is a friend so I may be biased here⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Do you like katsu? What makes Japanese curry amazing to you?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *Indicates businesses which are owned by East Asians⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #ESEAEats #ESEAJoy #FoodHistory #Katsu #KatsuCurry #カツレツ #カツ #カツカレー #JapaneseCurry #JapaneseFood #JapaneseCurryRice #CurryRice #Curry

  3. ONION BHAJI BURGER 🍔 😍 ♥️ This has got to be the best homemade burger I’ve ever made. Absolutely splendid 😋 who would of thought that an onion bhaji on a burger would be such a delight?? I had a takeaway a few months ago and that’s the first time I tried one. What an invention 🤩 I insist you make these guys!!! Top notch. Not even high in calories either !! At least my bhajis don’t look like crabs this time 😅This recipe makes 4 bhajis. (Makes 2 burgers). Ingredients - 4tbsp cornflour & 60g flour OR 100g gram flour 2tbsp strong curry powder 1tsp ground cumin 1tsp ground turmeric 10g coriander (chopped finely) 2 garlic cloves (grated) Fresh ginger (around thumb size, grated) 2 medium onions (sliced) Salt Vegetable oil (enough to fill around 1/4 of your pan). For coconut mint sauce - 20g mint sauce 80g coconut yogurt 1/4 cucumber (grated) Other - 40g mango chutney Lettuce (shredded) Method - Heat your oil in a wide pan on a high heat. Meanwhile, Add your flour to a large bowl with your curry powder, turmeric, cumin & a pinch of salt. Add 100ml of cold water and mix until you get a smooth, thick paste / batter. Next, add your onions, coriander, ginger & garlic. Give everything a good mix until it’s all coated well. Once your oil is hot, use a spoon to scoop your mixture into the pan. You should have enough to do 4 bhajis. Flatten them slightly & cook for around 4 mins each side. Once done, add some kitchen roll to a plate and add your bhajis on to soak up the remaining oil. Add your coconut mint sauce ingredients together and stir everything. To build your burger - Using a dry hot pan, add the sliced side of the burger buns and cook for around 2 mins until toasted. Once done, serve on a plate & add your coconut mint sauce to the base of each bun, then add 2 bhajis, mango chutney, lettuce. Serve with homemade chips.
