Adam Reid, the celebrated chef from The French restaurant at the Midland Hotel, is to launch a new ‘posh sandwich’ concept at the soon-to-open New Century Hall. The bottom floor of the venue is to be turned into a food hall, with a host of food vendors getting involved.
Reid will launch ‘The Butty Shop’ when the hall opens later this summer, as a celebration of the British butty, using as inspiration childhood trips to the bakery. The upscale butties will be available for breakfast, lunch and dinner, while the menu with also feature some classic butty accompaniments, like pickled eggs and a potato salad.
He’ll be joined by Altrincham Market alumnus Banh Vi, the Vegan Vietnamese and Thai kitchen, known for its superb plant-based take on the banh mi sandwich, along with hearty noodle broths and summer rolls.
