    Oh my goodness - how has this not been reviewed yet?!…read more Mumma Schnitzel is taking on the challenge of providing really great Street Food - and certainly seems to be a contender... Situated in Spinningfields, near more established (but if I can be so bold) less exciting competition such as Pret a Manger, Mumma is taking the specialisation route to greatness by offing a limited choice, but doing it really well. There are only really two choices, and one side; Chicken Burger, Halloumi Burger and Triple Fried fries. I can't comment on the veggie option, being a life long carnivore and all, but the chicken is brilliant! A thin, crispy panko style coating, sweet brioche bun, tangy mayo and crunchy lettuce make this to die for. The chicken comes from the thigh rather than breast, so you get a much juicier eating experience. The fries are awesome - I know that frying something three times must be disastrous for your health, but you have to try them... They do weekly specials (all on the chicken burger theme) to mix things up, and a meal deal for the burger, fries and a canned drink. Mmmmm. It's not a cheap burger, but it doesn't taste like one - if you want that, maybe head on over to KFC; if you're looking for a bit of a treat, this is the place for you.

    This will be a very short review as there's not a lot else I can say about Mumma Schnitzel...It is…read moreAMAZING! The chicken is always perfectly cooked and very crispy. The best one in my opinion is the simple one with just lettuce, sweet chili and mayo. I'm knocking a star off as I think at £8.50 for a chicken burger and chips is a little expensive even though it will be the best you will have ever tasted....

    Up In Your Grill - Nice Summer's evening at Up in Your Grill

    If you heard about, or were lucky enough to get down to any of Beat Street Manchester's Friday Food…read moreFights - then you would know that Up in Your Grill would be just as excellent. And it is. The summer equivalent of Friday Food Fight, which brought Manchester something totally different that it hadn't seen before, moved location from Upper Campfield market to Brownsfield Mill on Tariff St in Manchester's trendy Northern Quarter. Held every Friday night 5pm-midnight and Saturdays 2pm-midnight with free entry, it was a collaboration of Eats, Beats and Booze with local restaurants and street food heroes teaming up to show everything they had to offer. Over the summer I have attended Up in Your Grill maybe 5 or 6 times out of the 10 weeks and with the 3 or 4 vendors who attended changing each week, every time felt like a different eating experience - and for the popular ones who did return, they varied their eats on offer . A large indoor space lended itself well to the unpredictable Manchester weather on 2 of these occasions and the bar area, also inside, had much more space and had lots more on offer than at FFF. The music has also been excellent - with the DJs banging out some great summer anthems from the DJ booth. I managed to try a lot of the vendors that attended Up in Your Grill with SoLita, Viet Shack, The Hip Hop Chip Shop and Mash Up MCR being amongst my favourites. All in all, I haven't been able to fault Up In Your Grill - and my raving about it even had a friend in London desperate to come to Manchester just to try it! For most Manchester foodies this has been a place to visit often this summer, and with the newest concept '#BeatStreetTruckMeet' rumoured to start in early October I'm sure the guys from Beat Street won't disappoint.

    The summer incarnation of Beat Street Manchester's #FridayFoodFight, Up in Your Grill is being held…read moreevery Friday and Saturday at Brownsfield Mill, just by Go Outdoors and Aldi on the edge of the Northern Quarter. Entry is free before 7pm, then £3 afterwards. The space itself is clever; the Mill is, as you would expect, huge. The largest room inside is left empty, we presume for emergency seating/standing if the Manchester weather stays true to form. Last night though was beautiful, so we could make the most of the outside area and last hours of the sunny weather we've been having. You'll only find 4/5 vendors at these events, and they all serve from the same area - a large shipping container-esque contraption, with the djs sat aloft of this, accessing their decks via a ladder I personally wouldn't trust. Last night saw Mash Up, Honest Crust, Viet Shack, the Hip Hop Chippy, Nkona and Diamond Dogs serving up their meals. We only had space for one due to some poorly timed meals earlier in the day, and it just had to be the Hip Hop Chippy. We went for their special and some onion blings, as they'd always run out by the time we visited at #FridayFoodFight. Deep fried potato scallops, chunks of ham, crispy shallots and mushy peas - wow. Heart attack waiting to happen, but at least you'd go happy. Bar service was much smoother than previous events, with beer, cider, and a great selection of cocktails flying out. I had the bourbon based Hilly Billy Smash and a gin based Starburst Collins, both of which were nicely mixed, fruity but just alcoholic enough! It's dog and child friendly, so there's a nice atmosphere - everyone's there to eat some great food and enjoy their weekend.
