Media thread 2022/23

Bar San Juan and La Bandera are right up there with any Spanish food served in this entire country

I wasn’t that impressed with La Bandera but I might just have been having a bad day, I did like Lunya

Was that the one in Barton arcade? Was very decent that
La Bandera is right up there but go Thursday or Friday when the deliveries arrive
Canarian food has a bit of an African influence so some dishes are quite different to the mainland cuisine and not to everyone’s taste

Yeah but shut with lockdown and only reopened in Liverpool

Tripe….the ambrosia of the gods.

I could just about handle a tin of Ambrosia rice pudding (if it still exists) but I'll let you have my portion of tripe ;)

Is this the media thread, or the culinary/restaurant thread?

Anyway; back on topic.....




"Devastating Marcus Rashford"? It was Omonia, for fuck's sake.

So what if Erling is on a million a week?
Our tall iconic centre forwards have always been superstars and a global marketing dream…

Show some respect Jim, they came back from a goal down against shite European titans.

Kinell, can’t stop laughing, just about scraped past a team with Brandon Barker starting. Imagine what we would have done to Omonia Nicosia
I wonder if the BT coverage mentioned squad costs and wage bills?

I don’t really bother with Italian food but as I said previously my two Italian pals (Sardinia and Genoa) both swear by Salvis in town and Vesuvio in Boothstown.
The Sardinian lad worked at SanCarlo for years and said he wouldn’t let his dog eat there.
Best Spanish food in Manchester (and believe me I’ve tried them all) is Bar San Juan in Chorlton and La Bandera in the old Richfields club on Ridgefield off Deansgate (albeit the latter is more Canarian)
Where the Light Gets In in Stockport is pretty fantastic too
Loads of good food about but you need to find it, it won’t be in Instagram friendly wag holes like the Ivy, she needs to be more adventurous

Bar San Juan.

My man!

With the old portable TV on top of the fridge!

Would Haaland/City have legal grounds against this article?

It's speculation and more likely Erling will take the piss at some point and call out the article.

Like he did with the shopping trolley.

 

[Moss Side's Finest]

Freudian slip or another snide journalist having an unprofessional pop?

Brandon Barker plays in Cyprus?? Oh dear!

I'll have you know that Ammonia Nicosia are one of the best pub teams in the Europeless League.
