OK, I'm making the 10% discount for season ticket holders up, but it would be nice, Pep. ;-)
It's nice to see Pep(Soriano and Txiki) investing in the city. Bodes well. We just need Pep to sign an extension to his current contract.
Really looking forward to Tast.

MANCHESTER City boss Pep Guardiola has been revealed as one of the backers behind Tast, a new Catalan restaurant to open on King Street in June. Tast Cuina Catalana, which roughly translates as ‘taste from the Catalan kitchen’, will take over the 120-cover, three floor site previously occupied by the short lived Mediterranean restaurant Suri (which closed last year) and the failed gothic fine dining restaurant Quill.
Investors, who also include City’s director of football Txiki Begiristain, club CEO Ferran Soriano and the Fazenda Group, have a few tricks up their sleeves to make sure this restaurant will not go the way of its previous incarnations. To ensure the cooking is up to scratch, they have teamed up with multi-Michelin star chef Paco Perez.
Paco is the chef patron of not one, but two Michelin 2* restaurants - Miramar, in Llançà, Girona, as well as ‘Enoteca at the Arts Hotel’ in Barcelona, a city in which he owns five other restaurants. He is also behind the Michelin starred Restaurant Cinc at the Hotel Das Stue in Berlin – a very busy man.
In regard to his upcoming Manchester restaurant, chef Paco Perez says: “We are delighted to bring the Catalan cuisine to Manchester and to be part of the amazing team behind Tast.” (Perhaps he is unaware that Manchester already has quite a few Spanish and Catalan restaurants.)
Fazenda director Tomas Maunier says: “We are hugely excited to be working with these amazing creative talents. Catalonia has a distinctive identity and culture from that of Spain and our ambition is to introduce people to its wonderful tastes and flavours. Paco’s reputation is immense and we will serve some of his and Pep’s favourite Catalan dishes, both traditional and innovative.”
The new restaurant is planning to open in June 2018
Tast Cuina Catalana, 20-22 King Street Manchester, M2 6AG.
