It had a lot of ethnic chinese diners IIRC. However, that's one
restaurant. I've been in some terrible chinese ones in Glasgow. In
Manchester, I'm a bit spoiled, as there is a real Chinatown with plenty
of 'authentic' restaurants to choose from. On weekends (during the day)
you're lucky to get a table in some of them, as so many chinese families
go there...
