'I found some of the best Hong Kong food in the tiny Eccles takeaway with no website and a Facebook page in Cantonese'

Everyone likes a good treasure hunt. A while ago a friend - highly trusted in such matters - had mentioned in hushed tones that apparently a mate had said that ‘the best Hong Kong food in the north west’ is from a place in Eccles.

It was something about the ‘in the north west’ part. Not just ‘in Chinatown’, or ‘the best in Manchester’, but ‘in the north west’. We’re talking about a big chunk of the country. We’re talking Liverpool too here, people. Even - yes, I know - Warrington.

So I looked it up. It was supposedly called Second Garden. But there’s no website, and just one single relevant result, aside from the many, many listings for ‘second hand garden furniture’. It’s a Facebook page, and it’s all in Cantonese, but it does appear to be a thing, and it’s way down Liverpool Road.
