Vnam

If you didn't know already, Vnam has moved to the Northern Quarter and is really making this trendy part of town home. Now you're even closer to authentic Vietnamese eats in the heart of Manchester!

Cute, cosy and bursting with colourful personality, Vnam is like Manchester's very own Hoi An. A city famous for its French colonial undertones and the thousands of paper lanterns that hang over the cobbled streets, Vnam has encapsulated this magic with its own array of multicoloured lanterns and umbrellas. You'll also discover stunning photographs of the most beautiful corners of Vietnam that fully immerse you in this lively Southeast Asian country.

Another thing Vietnam is famous for is food! Undisputed masters of street food, sticky rice, pho and all things barbecued, decorate your table with summer rolls, fried spring rolls, bao buns and BBQ pork skewers to get you off to a good start. Then you're nice and warmed up for a hearty pho that is bound to beat those rainy Manchester days. Rich, meaty and aromatic, this Vietnamese noodle soup is always the answer.

Other mains include Vietnamese fried rice that can be customised and is, incidentally, one of the chef's specials. You've also got pork belly stew, BBQ pork noodles and BBQ lamb chops to choose from, all of which benefit from a VNAM salad on the side.
