Andalucia

Andalucia on Warrington’s Bridge Street is a Mediterranean restaurant serving mainly Lebanese and Moroccan food. It opened in September 2006 and the chef here used to cook at a 6-star hotel in Dubai. The a la carte choice is extensive and the best way to explore it is by sharing an array of small dishes (mezza) around the table. Not only do you get to sample a selection of relatively unfamiliar dishes; it also reflects the way the Lebanese themselves eat, eschewing the traditional three-course meal in favour of a more convivial ‘sharing’ approach. Lebanese cuisine focuses on herbs rather than sauces, letting the fresh ingredients speak for themselves with fruits, vegetables, fresh fish and seafood figuring strongly. If you want to learn more, Andalucia also runs cookery courses for individuals or groups. Private dining also available. ...more information
