Give us a clue on food preferences and budget and you might get something more useful than MacDonalds in Didsbury.

No real budget in mind , dont mind spending some £££ suppose £150 for 2 would be my max ?

neither of us will be drinking (as flying out at 6am)

food wise anything apart from indian would be considered.

thanks

Gaucho Grill - nice Argentinian steak
Kroma - nice italian
Koreana - korean food, some spicy stuff.

No, thank you . Apparently Greens over the road from Lime Tree is great too if you don't mind veggie for a change.

showed the other half and looks like the lime tree will be the winner as its nice and handy

is it likely 2 be mega busy on a sat night ? ie should i book a table as not sure what time we will be wanting to eat was going to head to trafford centre for some shopping first etc.

thanks again for all help given

much appreciated.

Ross

[Lord Croker]

You'll definitely need to book.

Trafford Centre - nooooo! Go into Manchester instead, it's great for shopping

[Ross_]

ok ... trafford centre to be avoided then

shall ask her what time OH will want fed ... and make a reservation tonight.

anything on the menu you recommend

cheers

As cappsy said....piccolinos.

[Lord Croker]

^^^^^^^
Yep. Also I've heard good things about Casa Tapas in Didsbury, or there's Yang Sing in town.

[Ding]

loads of good places, but I like Obsidian (Manchester city centre) (modern surroundings) good food and excellent service. http://www.obsidianmanchester.co.uk/

Have booked Piccolinos shall report back on how it is

thanks again all for the input

Michael Caines at Abode is reputed to be the best restaurant for fine dining in Manc, but I have never been. I am surprised by the amount of recommendations for Piccolinos considering its basically just a chain, but again... never been. There are some really good restaurants in Hale e.g. Hale Kitchen, Dee Thai etc. Tampopo in Manc is also meant to be good.
