We had a lovely tea in Blacklock Manchester. Started with the pigs head on toast. All I can say is OH. MY. GOD. Salty, rich, sumptuous, flavour-packed... It was Chefs kiss! We shared that but also tried the 3 x pre-chop bites (a bargain at £1.50 each)... they are like two bite mini Hors D'oeuvres. The variations were: ☆ Potted meat and Kimchi (not for us, the Kimchi was over-fermented to our tastes - but that's just personal preference!) ☆ Cheese and Pickle (Tasty but not really surprising or memorable) ☆ Egg and Anchovy (Sublime! Memorable! Could have eaten 10 of them!) Then my husband had the Steak and Stout pie which was stunning! I had a lamb cutlet and a lamb t-bone chop, both were really well cooked and I especially loved the t-bone chop for that "lamb fat on a bbq" taste We shared Beef dripping chips, baby gem sautéed in Anchovy oil (surprisingly moreish!), a brocoli and walnut salad (wouldn't order again, too creamy and not enough broccoli nuttiness for us!) And garlic bone marrow. (Super tasty with the garlic, but unfortunately a tad to jellied for me... prefer mine roasted so the fat turns more solid) Then, the absolute MOTHER of a white chocolate and berry cheesecake finished me off! I would eat that every day if I could!! And I am not really a "dessert" girl... more of an espresso martini or affogato type! Prices of food and drink are all really reasonable for central Manchester. Venue is lovely, service and staff were great. No more notes ✍️
