Chapati Café

Manchester's fine 'rice 'n' three' tradition comes to Salford in the form of this Gujarati café, MediaCity's most wholesome (and popular) indie offering. A daily dish rotation – pick three to eat with fluffy rice – includes treasures such as lamb karahi or floaty-light coconut and spinach tarka dhal. It's a popular al-desko takeaway, but you can eat in from cardboard bowls at the basic bench seating. Either way, the correct response to the offer of chillies and chutneys is 'all of them, please'.
