GORDO, as his very sensible readers will know by now, loves a proper breakfast.
Three years ago there were few really good places outside the main hotels, but after Gordo had spent many hours tirelessly campaigning for better breakfasts (It's down to you is it Gordo? Ed), more and more are appearing in the better establishments across our fair city.
Gordo was asked in to advise on how the restaurant could up its game and the family have taken on his advice
The latest, and one which Gordo takes some personal pride in, is the offering at 47 King Street, opposite San Carlo, where the delightful Hymanson family has morphed a tea shop into an damn good restaurant with breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner menus.
Gordo was asked in to advise on how the restaurant could up its game, and, apart from the orange juice, the family have taken on his advice and are now delivering a first class proposition which includes a made-in-the-kitchen rosti on the full English.
This breakfast now comes in easily as one of the four best in town. It's a bargain too at £6.95.
White tablecloths as well. Lovely. Watch out for the orange juice mind you.
47 King Street West, City, M3 2PW. 0161 839 1929
