Eating out in Manchester

[aka blue jambo]

The Koffee pot on the Great Ancoats side of Oldham Street if you can get in. The last couple of times I have tried to get a breakfast there it's been a 40 minute
wait. The breakfast is bang on though....and tea and toast is included in the price.
This new fad by cafes of advertising a full breakfast at a certain price and then charging another £1.50 for a slice of toast and £2.50 for coffee pisses me off.
Got caught out in a cafe on New York St behind Piccadily when they served me my breakfast with no tea/coffee or toast and it cost me an extra £6.00 to upgrade.

That was my vote
But it does irk me that there are no free tea refills

Recommendations for a lunch menu in Chinatown?

Off to see Peter Kay tonight but need feeding.

Cafe Metro was a huge personal favourite and I was devastated when it closed. I was possibly half way up Oldham Street when I last had something. Past The Night & Day.

Surely you can’t go wrong with pizza somewhere?

Not Chinatown but the Ricebowl on Cross Street is very good and VFM, Jill Scott was in there last time I went, fillet steak Cantonese style was excellent.

Edit, if you don’t want Ala Carte the “lunch” menus is available until 5pm, from £19.50 for two courses.

Is definitely the right answer. Get the black pepper steak rolls as a starter.

Went to 'Only Yu' and had the lunch menu for £19.50.
Hot and sour soup
Salt and pepper chicken wings x6 with extra chilli
Beef in black bean sauce with plain chow mein

Absolutely spot on....
