Canto Manchester

NEW SEASONAL MENU AT CANTO

Popular Mediterranean tapas restaurant, Canto Manchester, has introduced a new autumn / winter menu and it’s warming hearts and souls.

Featuring a range of new dishes including popular and returning best-sellers, we’ve had the pleasure of unveiling the new seasonal menu to the media and inviting reviewers to sample Head Chef Gomes’ own personal favourites.  The response has been as incredible as the food, with widespread praise and coverage for the Ancoats restaurant, including kind words from Frank Lampard who, in a recent interview with The Sportsman, cited the restaurant as “his favourite place to eat in the entire world, well, Manchester.”

Located in the heart of Cutting Room Square, Ancoats, Canto has established itself as one of the fashionable district’s key destinations.  With lots of exciting developments in the pipeline we’re looking forward to 2020.

EL GATO NEGRO SAILS INTO EXCHANGE FLAGS, LIVERPOOL

Simon Shaw, Chef Patron and Creative Director of El Gato Negro, opened the doors to his new restaurant in Liverpool this week, and it’s beautiful.

The acclaimed Spanish tapas restaurant born in Ripponden and now proudly based on King Street in Manchester has, under the tutelage of Shaw, garnered widespread critical acclaim and a succession of accolades from Hardens, Michelin, The Times, and The Good Food Guide amongst many others.

It is now proud to launch in Liverpool, taking a prime position at historic Walker House, in Exchange Flags.

We were thrilled to work with the team on the opening and to deliver the exclusive week-long celebration including an intimate press dinner, launch party for over 300 of the city’s key stakeholders, and series of private events.

The Liverpool Echo joined us in covering the grand opening with extensive coverage in all of the region’s key news and lifestyle outlets.  This has been underpinned by national coverage in Stylist and The Independent and with many more items secured to follow.

We’re thrilled to continue our work with the award-winning restaurant operator with exciting plans in place for 2020 and beyond.
