Regular readers of my blog may have
noticed that I haven’t posted about The
French since way back in August!
Do not worry… I haven’t gone off it
– it’s still the best restaurant in Manchester; but I have been getting my
monthly fix of Simon Rogan’s food
at his other restaurants – in October at L’Enclume and the Pig & Whistle and,
in September with a couple of meals at Mr.
Cooper’s House & Garden (here & here).
Here are some pictures of a recent
lunch at The French featuring beautiful ingredients, crafted into stunning dishes by Head Chef Adam
Reid and his team. The service, conducted by Assistant Manager Rebecca Winskill,
was equally impressive.
