What more could you ask for from a vegetarian restaurant in Liverpool?"

"Anyone who has cast a casual glance at the dishes available here can't have failed to notice the Nutella and mascarpone calzone. Those in the know at Gusto will tell you that no matter how much customers eat for their first courses, they always find a way to leave room for one of these."

"No best-of restaurant list is complete without pizza, and luckily Manchester is well-known for its popular pizzeria Rudy's Pizza. Known for its "proper" Neapolitan pizza, Rudy's a casual spot that's ideal for families and groups but is also cool enough for couples and pairs of friends. There are several locations throughout Manchester, and you won't go wrong at any of them."

"Melt in the mouth Sicilian rice balls served with a side salad is authentic Italian simplicity at its best. Co-owner & head chef of The Italian Club on Bold Street, Maurizio Pellegrini doesn’t get much time to eat during a typically busy day but always finds time for some Arancini. “It’s a filling dish that reigns from Sicily but it’s also a staple Italian food and is delicious and nutritious."

"This regular Bold Street stop for lovers of all fare Italiano, there’s another interesting twist on a classic here when it comes to pudding. They pride themselves on the rolled Nutella pizza dessert. It’s artisan Italian thick cut pizza dough stretched out, with a spread of Nutella rolled up and baked until gently crisp and then finished with a flourish of cream and strawberries."

"There’s a legend surrounding Lark Lane’s Maranto’s restaurant – rumour has it that this family-run restaurant was the first to bring American-style BBQ ribs to the shores of the Mersey in 1985. Owned by the Italian-American Maranto clan, this South Liverpool Trattoria has become a firm foodie favourite in the city since it introduced Scousers to the wonders of tender pork ribs. Serving classic pizzas, authentic pasta and risotto dishes and plenty of state-side burger options from their Grade-II listed Victorian building for over 35 years, it’s the perfect place to head for a hearty, home-cooked meal just like Mamma used to make."

"Owned by the Italian American Maranto’s family, this restaurant has been a favourite among Liverpudlians for years and remains a solid addition to the restaurant scene in the city. The Victorian building, playing host to a number of different occupants over the years, now serves up a mixture of Italian and international cuisines. Expect the likes of buffalo wings, risotto funghi and lamb Seville."

"A local institution, Affleck’s is a hub for Manchester’s alternative crowd, containing an impressive array of stalls selling everything from fetish gear to DIY jewellery. Pop inside to discover an eclectic array of clothing, jewellery, memorabilia and gifts before sneaking upstairs for a luxury ice cream at Ginger’s Comfort Emporium."

"I ended up at the massive building of ‘Afflecks’, which turned out to be “An Emporium of Eclecticism“, meaning it was full of shops selling random shit, basically. Afflecks is an indoor market with dozens of independent stalls, small shops and boutiques, some of them quite strange, but also a lot of them with awesome handmade goods."

"One of the best places to just loose yourself is Aflecks Palace. Floors of independent stalls selling everything from food, jewelry and clothing."
