THE new restaurant at Genting Club Manchester on Portland Street is now open. The Fahrenheit Grill has space for 80 diners and takes its name from the Josper Grill used to prepare some of the dishes, which can reach temperatures of up to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
Dishes on the new menu include 35-day matured ‘Mathers Black Gold’ fillet of Scotch beef, seared sea bass fillet, and Josper roasted lobster and monkfish loin.
The head chef James Lunham said, “The Josper Grill is a delight to cook with. It combines the features of an enclosed oven with the traditional characteristics of a barbecue to maintain the high cooking temperature. It is this unique cooking method which really helps to enhance the flavours, particularly when preparing the high quality steaks we source.”
The food and drink at the Genting Club Manchester has been masterminded by ex-head chef at Claridge’s, Paul Farr. Paul joined Genting earlier this year after nine years at the famous London restaurant.
He said of the new restaurant at Genting Club Manchester, “People don’t tend to associate casinos with a quality dining experience, however that is exactly what you will get at the new Fahrenheit Grill in Manchester. We have invested a lot of time and effort into developing the very best cooking techniques and sourcing the highest quality ingredients for the menu, and have worked equally hard to create a stylish, premium, but relaxed ambience in the restaurant.
“The atmosphere is only heightened by the nearby gaming floor and casino surroundings. If you haven’t dined in a casino before I think you will be very pleasantly surprised.”
Paul added, “Diners at the Fahrenheit Grill do not have to be members of the Genting Club and there is no requirement for diners to game, although they are of course very welcome to do so if they wish.”
Work on the next phase of the refurbishment of Genting Club Manchester continues, with a new bar and a modernised gaming floor and reception area still to be completed. The whole project will be completed later this year.
