Higher Ground, the new restaurant from the people behind the celebrated Flawd in Ancoats, will open on February 18, it’s been confirmed. The new spot is to be a ‘British bistro’, and will feature a daily changing menu using produce from its own market garden in Cheshire.
The restaurant, on the edge of Chinatown, will seat 50, with seating in the main restaurant as well as counter seats overlooking the open kitchen and a charcoal oven. It will feature an a la carte menu, as well as a sharing menu priced at £45 per person, which will encompass various dishes to share as well as individual courses.
Example dishes will include a Cumberland farmhouse cheddar quiche and Jane’s acorn reared pig belly with grain and mushroom porridge. Vegetarian dishes will include BBQ leek skewers and cow’s curd and celeriac with Spanish blood orange and bay leaf.
