Pre-birthday Dinner
Harvey Nichols was brilliantly presenting delightful fine dining. All foods were cooked or prepared to perfection, and well presented; the service was great too. It was a 5-course tasting menu with a cocktail, water and coffee plus petit fours included. On top of that, they also served us breads and snacks prior to the 5-course. Wonderful.. wonderful...
It was a fine day in Manchester, we enjoyed people-watching in front of Old Wellington pub before heading for Second Floor Restaurant, Harvey Nichols.

Gorgeous breads. So far, in my opinion, aBode has the best bread in town but
after trying these I am doubtful. And, the butters... OMG.. so tasty.
One of the butters had smokey flavour, superb!!
