"A post shared by Maray (@marayrestaurant) on Aug 10, 2018 at 4:11am PDT. Maray is famed for their showstopping roasted cauliflower, but when it comes to after-dinner treats, they really knock it out of the park. Silky, indulgent and the perfect balance of saltiness and sweetness, this delight is served with a lovely light Chantilly – making it one of the most delicious desserts in Liverpool."

"Nisha Katona has done lots for Liverpool’s restaurant scene; a frequent guest on various television cooking shows, she is also a tireless promoter of the city’s culinary assets at foodie events across the region and beyond. Perhaps her most appreciated contribution to the city though is Bold Street’s Mowgli, the first Indian street food eatery in Liverpool and an instant hit with foodies on Merseyside. The simple but tasty dishes justify the restaurant’s popularity and it’s no surprise that new sister restaurants have opened up on Water Street in Liverpool and over in Manchester."

"A dish that makes you really sit up and take notice, Mowgli's Nisha Katona credits her mother for inspiring this pimped-up Indian delight. Green chilli dressing, coriander and Indian pickle transform a humble British staple into something quite special at Mowgli on Bold Street."

"Their Indian Street food dishes are incredible and we’d definitely recommend trying the yoghurt chat bombs. View this post on Instagram. A post shared by The Scouse Foodie (@the.scousefoodie)"

"Mayur Patel’s family has been cooking some of Britain’s best meat-free Gujarati food for several decades at Prashad restaurant in West Yorkshire.

Bundobust’s taps now feature hazy pale Peela and chai porter Chaitro – the first releases from its new brewery on Oxford Road, which should open to the public in late August."

"With acclaim from national reviewers, Bundobust's street food and craft beer philosophy may seem simple, but it's hella tasty. The Manchester restaurant is a must for sharing vegan food; though don't end up squabbling over the bhel puri - a mix of pastry, peas and tamarind chutney."

"With far-reaching views over the golf course, The Old Stables is a firm favourite for balmy summer nights, and now thanks to some heated tables it’s set to become a hot winter spot too.
