Like the Thai restaurants round there. Did a few when I worked there.

Don't know if its still there, but a little one opened on Sackville street; was good and being a little out of Chinatown might be a bit quiter.

Ikan.

 

The old monkey nearby was great for ale if you're into joey holts.

Trust me on this.

The Great Wall restaurant .

At the rear of the old Monkey.

On the left hand side of the street as you walk towards the Arch.

Its downstairs.

Reasonably priced , good food . No after effects.

Give it a go.

Aye, they did invent gunpowder after all.

In a stereotypical way wouldn't they pronounce it "gay fox" night. Plenty of plawn clackers available whilst watching the lockets.

Yep the chinese did it first.

But did you know.

Graphite from Ulverston

Mixed to make Black Powder (gun)

Put on ships to Africa.

Swapped for Slaves.

Taken to the Americas.

Swapped for Cotton.

Transported to Lancashire Cotton Mills.

And thats why most of us are here.

Except for the daft sods in Westhoughton who burnt the mill down.

Went for a pint in the White Lion.Got arrested.

2 were hung. The others transported to Aussie . As an advance party for Bolty.

Can't go wrong with little yang sing or wings if you decide to go Chinese.

I dont like chinese food. Do enjoy all other asian food though.

 

If its just about the food then I am Pho is good and also there is a place called Siam Smiles down in a supermarket which is ace. Very basic though.

This. If you are determined to go Chinese. Wings is massively over-priced and The Little Yang Sing (was always my favourite) has disappeared up it's own arsehole and become shite

Disagree on Wings, I think it's worth the price

 

Try Thai is a very decent Chinatown option if you don't want Chinese

 

Pho is alright for lunch or a casual tea but I'd not go there if I was "going out for dinner"

I'll agree to disagree on Wings. Have had better in many places but each to their own

 

Not been to Try Thai. Where is it? For Thai I like the place in Spinningfields owned by Chaophrya who's name I can't remember

 

Loved Pho every time I've been but it's always been a bit early like 7pm after a few beers
