When you hear Manchester, you often think of one of the following: great sporting rivalries, a generation-defining music scene and industry. Home to two of the world’s most famous football teams – Manchester City and Manchester United, the city also gave us The Smiths, The Stone Roses and Oasis among many others. The city’s swagger is as famous as its weather. The central shopping area has been extensively redeveloped since the IRA bombing of 1996.
The city also has a vibrant culinary scene, ranging from high-class restaurants in the Curry Mile; the hipster Northern Quarter area hosts independent boutiques, edgy bars and coffee houses galore.
