The Real German Sausage stall is essentially a hot dog stall that does German sausages as opposed…read moreto the more common British hot dog stall who sell things like Cumberland etc. They do Bratwurst and Brockwurst (mixture of pork and beef) sausages, and Frikadel (pork) burgers. I was freezing walking through town recently and decided the smell was just too tempting to avoid. I got a Brockwurst with onions and cheese for £2.50. It was really nice, not too expensive and warmed/filled me up perfectly. The only problem is that they are really hard to eat without spilling ketchup or grease down yourself! I would recommend standing still with a handful of napkins if you plan to get out unstained.

I've seen the business advertised on a bbc show with Ainsley before so always knew about it, but this was my visit visit. Walked around the Arndale market to see about the place and it looks really good ... a proper street food authentic Mexican unit with all the ingredients on display, a cabinet full of hot sauces and chilli sauces and authentic Mexican items. It was great. I made my order through deliveroo to collect as I'm always a bit shy when ordering at a new place for the first time .. so order to collect on an app is perfect for me. I ordered the chicken tinga tacos (which were corn tacos so gluten free) and added tofu (for a cost) and had free toppings of soured cream, cheese, chipotle sauce and salad, and a bag of tortilla chips. The order came in an awesome branded paper bag and it was huge. The tacos were at the bottom and looking inside the bar, I didn't realise how big the tortilla chip bag was The food was great ... the container was filled to the brim and was so delicious. The salad was crunchy and fresh, the chicken came in big chunks and was delicious, the tofu was the best tofu I've ever had and they had rice on the tacos too. 10/10 would go back and recommend to anyone .. I need to try the burritos or burrito bowls next time .. or just have one of everything as it was so good .. and in the city centre too so if you're around and you want authentic, delicious, fresh Mexican food .. this is the place. (They even sell merch of the shop and things like Mexican wrestling masks and tomatillos and so much more)

It's noticeable how different the filling is from the identikit Chipotle-style burrito places elsewhere - I'm not sure if this is actually more authentic but it sure is a nice change. Will be back. Just a note that the first time I didn't like the burrito so much because the sauce in the pork I had was quite watery which made the whole burrito soggy - so take a quick look at the meat options to eliminate that one if that doesn't sound good!

I stood for a while watching them create such amazing Malaysian dishes from fresh ingredients - and when I got my chance to try some I was blown away. The fish dish I had was so tasty and incredibly well cooked considering it's being served from a street stall! It was very spicy but they managed to get the balance of spices just right. I would order this again! I sampled the squid and also the fishcake - and WOW the fishcake was divine. I didn't try the ribs that were brought around, but I did watch other Yelpers tuck into them and they seemed happy so thumbs up for the ribs too! The bubble tea was certainly an experience too! A weird but tasty refreshing juice drink that had small bubbles of juice floating around at the bottom. Occasionally one would fly up your straw and, if you avoid choking on it like I did, they pop and release a different flavour of juice. Very odd - but very good. If I'm in Alty Market again soon I'll be paying them another visit!

Really enjoyed the vegan Sunday event here. I was surprised to find it fairly warm inside (was…read moreprepared for the arctic conditions of its former home, Alphabet Brewery) and the space is beautiful, especially the giant arched window letting on gorgeous yellowy light as the sun set in the late afternoon. Food-wise, the offerings were impressive. Oh Mei Dumpling was great, the only bummer was they vastly under-budgeted and ran out while they still had a large queue some hours before closing. Luckily I got in there quickly! Ottomen was very popular too but had a very lengthy queue, apparently they take a long time explaining the offerings to each customer to make sure they get the ideal combo which is nice customer service except for the fact that customer has had to spend 30 minutes in a queue while their friends drink elsewhere - maybe some sort of explanatory blackboard or better labelling could speed things up. Macdaddies also did an impressive vegan offering - you def wouldn't know it's not cheese. Vendor wise, the vegan pies and arancini were both great, would definitely recommend those to take away for some tasty lunches post your Sunday come down. Drinks options include a decent variety of local beers, of course local doesn't necessarily mean good and it's mostly keg here but you'll find something drinkable. They also have some fancy soft drinks of varying quality, at least they are a bit different though!

TL;DR - New venue, still the same great food, drink and vibes…read more After a few years of moving back and forth between Mayfield in summer and Fairfield Street in winter, GRUB finally has a new year round home on Redbank. This should be their permanent home for the forseeable future, all year round. The new place has a bit of a different layout, since it's based in a two storey building - downstairs has an enlarged bar and seating area, a children's play area and the toilets; upstairs is a much larger seating area plus when we were there a wine bar, cakes and a DJ. Street food vendors are located outside, in the yard at the rear. Go out back and get some food, then head back inside to get some drinks and a seat. Other than the new venue though, this is still the same GRUB we know and love. Fantastic street food from an ever changing list of vendors, great local beers, great music and a relaxed vibe - and the whole place is family and dog friendly. Oh, and I nearly forgot - everything on Sundays is vegan!

Plus sweet and savoury crepes with Nutella, banana and the like. I went for a regular size Moroccan Lamb wrap, with yoghurt and sweet chilli sauce, for £3.30. Large was £3.90. And larger still for £4.50. Or get a regular wrap with chips and a drink for £4.50. Not bad. I enjoyed my wrap and it was nice to have hot food at lunch for a change. I would definitely go back if I'm in Altrincham at lunchtime again. Clearly I'm not the only one as they seem to do pretty well with the office workers nearby. They have a few tables and chairs next to their stand which is handy.

I really like the Manchester European Christmas Market. It's the first Christmas Market I ever…read moreexperienced, so maybe it's also a bit nostalgia for me since the first time I went I was enamored. However, now that I have been to Europe many times in the winter and I've experienced the Christmas markets in various cities in different countries, I still do enjoy the Manchester Christmas Market though. It has a very warm, inviting atmosphere. It's not big and not too small either. As an American, I love the idea of public drinking outdoors, so I loved sipping warm mulled wine outdoors in a festive setting. There's even double decker, two levels bars here. So you have your choice. You can cozy up indoors, you can head upstairs to the second level to overlook the entire market, or you can take your mug and wander around the festival. I also really like the layout of the cute wooden huts. They're not in just a long straight row like some markets. The Christmas Market in Manchester takes over an entire square, and the stalls are laid out in a grid, so it's easy to wander and check out all of the stalls. The layout invites you to linger, sipping and eating as you go versus some markets you kind of just market straight through and they have a separate area for sitting and eating. However, the downside of this, is this market is incredibly crowded. I mean I quite like a crowded, festive atmosphere, but it's just a bit too crowded. The market has expanded outside the main square now, and does carry on throughout the city to a few other squares which are less crowded and the prices for food seem to be cheaper too. Also, one of my favorite things at the market are to sample different foods and I particularly like the variety of food options at this market. There's lots of interestings things to try. This year, we had the Yorkshire Pudding Wrap which was awesome. We also shared some cheesy garlic potatoes which were decadently delicious. I always have a good time at this market and I like the big Santa on top of the building, and all the decor that just make this market so fun to wander through.

The banh mih had the flavour I felt was missing from I Am Pho's version, really beautiful blend of sweet and tangy. I do think Amir is right about the bread though, towards the end of the sandwich its "part baked" flavour started to overwhelm the deliciousness of the filling (also that end possibly needed a bit more filling in it). Summer rolls were great, I tried the peanut sauce with chilli added as suggested, which was yum. Next time I'll try their other chilli option. Overall a great addition to Manchester's lunchtime scene and I look forward to seeing them at street food events in the near future!
