Dining Experience

Michael Caines Restaurant and Champagne Bar

Please note: The Michael Caines Restaurant will be closed between 26th December 2011 and 15th January 2012.

The awards-winning Michael Caines Restaurant and Champagne Bar at ABode Manchester serves exciting and innovative modern European cuisine with an accent firmly on showcasing the very best produce and ingredients from the North West. The restaurant is overseen by Michael Caines, well-known for his appearances on TV, who has created an exciting range of menus, including grazing, a la carte and tasting.

Grazing is a wonderful way to enjoy any number of dishes from the à la carte menu in smaller Servings - as few or as many either in the Champagne Bar, or as part of your own tasting menu in the Restaurant. You can also have 'grazing measures' of suggested wines to accompany the dishes. The wine list has been carefully chosen to complement the cuisine, with a selection of excellent-value wines from both classic European vineyards as well as New World estates.

The restaurant has also established a reputation locally for serving the best 2 and 3 course lunch in the city at an excellent value price.

Sample starter menu: Crab and scallop mousse, stuffed courgette flower, lemongrass and ginger sauce; Terrine of foie gras green beans and Madeira jelly; Tartlet of quail eggs with onion confit and herb butter sauces; Pan-fried scallops with provençale terrine, tapenade and tomato vinaigrette; Home-cured beef bresaola and marinated provençale vegetables.
