'I tried the fancy new restaurant in the Greater Manchester town fast becoming a hidden food and drink gem'
Usually when I go out for food as part of this job, I'm trying gut busting food challenges or stirring up heated debates by comparing much loved local delicacies. So when fancy new restaurant Ewe opened with the promise of bringing Manchester city centre 'flamboyance' to my hometown of Bolton, I thought it the perfect time to broaden my culinary horizons.
Local designer Gary Macpherson said he was aiming to create a 'rural, cosy feel' in the venue and it certainly felt very warm and welcoming once I stepped inside, especially when compared with the dreadful weather I was escaping. When I was first shown around the restaurant in November, it wasn't quite finished, so getting to see the spacious venue in all its glory was a treat.
It was tempting to play it really safe and just go for a pizza, with the spicy nduja sausage one particularly catching my eye, but I instead opted for the crispy pork belly as my main. My dining partner chose the incredible sounding wild boar ragù , which our server David assured us was an 'excellent choice'. We also chose a couple of the small plates as starters, opting for the black truffle arancini and sourdough bruschetta .
The crispy pork belly was generously sized and was presented really well - on a small bed of mash with tiny pork crackling bits scattered around. In the corner there were strands of celeriac, coated in mustard, and greens wrapped around slices of baked apple.
