Hot Pot is a new café and lunch vending establishment situated behind the university on Booth…read moreStreet West. Its sandwiched (no pun intended) between Czech Bar and Lifestyle Convenience Store, with no other establishments in the vicinity. The little 3-business area is worth a visit though if you're looking for an alternative to Oxford Road, from which it is five minutes stroll. The improving Czech Bar is beaten by this new little establishment, which, whilst quiet at the moment, is sure to do well if people hear about it and give it a go. Its very cheap, and they serve good snacks and sandwiches, as well as some really tasty smoothies. I certainly recommend paying a visit, and speculate that it could become popular in the near future.

Pizza is, obviously, always my first choice here. Their pizza bases are thin and crispy and they love to experiment with a huge choice of toppings too. The pizza pictured, was lovely! I have tried some pasta dishes here too - the mushroom tortellini being one of my favourites. If you ever find yourself in Middlebrook retail park and get hungry - I would recommend Ask.

The staff here did seem quite nice, and inside it was the quite a nice place as well with some italian decor going back to the roots of this restauraunt, this was nice. I ordered a Gluten Free Margharita Buffala pizza, which simply is a Margharia with Buffalo Mozzerella, it was quite nice, albeit there was probably too much buffalo mozzerella, and big lumps of it, the base was quite nice too but sadly it was a little soggy. I also ordered some potatoes to go with my meal, they were quite nice with the oil they put them in and a nice gluten free side, if you are a coeliac like myself. The service did seem quite quick, but I felt rushed as they come over when I hadn't decided what to order yet, and then came nowhere near me so I had to do a huge wave across the restauraunt, like a kid would do to say goodbye. The pricing seemed reasonable, especially with my Tastecard which gave me 2-4-1, albeit this was only one lot despite there being 4 diners overall, which was a shame. Overall, this is quite a nice place, but is sadly too much on the average side to warrant anything over 3 stars.

I LOVE Ancoats, and I love cutting room square. Whenever I come up to Manchester, 9 times out of 10…read moreI will find myself in ancoats and just walking around and trying the bars and restaurants there. It's amazing. So when it came to a December trip, I knew I wanted to treat myself and go somewhere new and somewhere in Ancoats, and Elnecot popped up on my feed. Ive walked passed this place so many times and never been in and decided to change it. I booked a time and it was in-between lunch and dinner services so they still served lunch and was before the workers finished so it was quiet. Walking in, it was a lovely place. Looks upscale, looks trendy, looks cozy and it really was. The length of the restaurant has floor to ceiling windows sou can still see the beautiful buildings and people walking passed, and they had a curtain light in the window next to me so it added to the ambiance. As it was the festive period, and I wanted to be a bit fancy with a wine, I chose the Mulled wine from the festive specials menu. Then went for the welsh cheeseburger and fries and the chocolate lava cake thingy for desert. The service was nice and super quick, and the food was delicious. The mulled wine, was better than at the Christmas markets and nice and warning and warm. The burger was delicious and chips were epic. Then the desert came and OMG .. I shall let the pictures do all the talking.

Date night means steak night, right? Being in Bolton for the weekend, we took the train to Parbold…read moreto go to Miller and Carter for our steak fix. We got to Parbold a little early and decided to walk from the station up the hill to the restaurant. Potentially not he best idea in the inclement weather, but he views are spectacular and we certainly worked up an appetite. When we arrived we were still a little early for our reservation so we were given a pager and grabbed a drink to sit the comfy bar area. While Miller and Carter is part of a small chain I feel like this one is quite special because of its location and the beautiful views all around. I can imagine it being beautiful in theirs outdoor area with firepit on a dusky summer evening. Our pager went off and we were taken to our table, which was next to the window so we could keep enjoying the views. Scallops with chorizo and the Bourbon glazed chicken were our starters, with fillet steak and a big old sirloin for our mains. Both came with a lettuce wedge salad, chips, steak sauce (with a really great range to choose from - I'd recommend the rich bordelaise) and their own recipe onion loaf which was a total taste revelation. We also opted for the bourbon glazed purple carrots and a rather nice bottle of Malbec to wash it all down. The staff were wonderful and I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant. We'll definitely be back, and will also be trying out their more conventionally located branch in Leeds.
