00:00Hi I'm Theo with Manchester World and today I'm out in Manchester asking people about their favourite businesses here in the city.
00:07Now we're going to be asking a couple of people out on the street for the places that they think deserve extra special recognition
00:12for either the work that they do or the quality of the thing that they make.
00:17I always go out but I'm always down on like Canal Street, I'm not going to lie.
00:21Hip Hop Chip Shop, got to be one of the best ones we've been to.
00:25Really good food, really nice vibes, great music and they're good people in there as well.
00:31I actually had time for a chat.
00:32Mainly the community side of it, it's really focused on the Hip Hop that's going to be in there
00:36and it had a good range of stuff to it as well.
00:38We went to a Desert Island Dumpling, a plant based dumpling place.
00:43Unreal! Phenomenal, so good.
00:46She's not even vegan. I'm not even vegan and it was unreal.
00:48It was amazing, the dumplings like you can tell that she made them with her love and affection.
00:53And it was just like a nice cool vibe in there.
00:55Like people just working in the corner, just like eating, chilling, really nice.
00:59And it's plant based, period. That's all you need to say.
01:03I would definitely say cafe wise, our next door neighbour Buzzy B.
01:08They're sort of brand new, all the girls that work there are super lovely and they make the best brookies.
01:13I think they call them.
01:14In terms of venue, much the same, Hip Hop Chip Shop.
01:17Having literally just come from there, had an absolutely amazing vegan option.
01:22It was interesting, it was a decent sized portion as well.
01:26So yeah, absolutely brilliant. Definitely recommend that one.
01:29Again, another one of our next door neighbours, Ramen Shop.
01:32They're really good, they make it all fresh, completely fresh ramen.
01:36And the soft shell crab is to die for.
01:39So there you have it, there are some of the favourite places in Manchester.
01:43For me, there are tons and tons of great options.
01:46I love Track Brewery, I love Cloudwater Brewery as well.
01:49In terms of food, I very rarely look past Northern Soul Grilled Cheese.
01:54There are great options all over the city.
01:56If you've not been before, what are you doing?
