Welcome to our new series where we share a handful of cracking food and drink deals you can take advantage of in Manchester this week.
This week's rundown includes offerings from Louis, Maricarmen and 10 Tib Lane.
Louis
Louis is an ode to the classic New York restaurants, which are often portrayed on the silver screen as a home from home, where guests are welcomed into an intimate booth, surrounded by quietly excellent cooking and perfectly mixed cocktails, whilst live performances provide the soundtrack to the evening.
They also do a cracking 'Taste of Louis' set menu served up all day on Sundays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. Starters include menu favourites like the Tomato Burrata salad, Iberico Meatballs, Fried Mac & Cheese Balls and Calamari Fritti. For mains, diners can choose from Rigatoni Alla Vodka, Spaghetti Aglio E Olio, Chicken Parmigiano or a New York Strip for a £5 upgrade. And to end the meal? Well, sweet treats on the dessert trolley include; Apple Pie, Baked New York Cheesecake and the utterly indulgent Tiramisù.
Two courses will set you back just £34.50, or you can go all out and opt for three courses at £39.50

Maricarmen
If you're searching for an incredible little spot in town where you can dine like a Spanish local without blowing the bank, then look no further than Maricarmen tucked away in the heart of Ancoats.
Be sure to head over there for their famous 'El Tableo' dining concept which sees each dish priced at just £3.50 a pop! You don't even need to order, as tapas boards will find their way to your table, and all you need to do is select the ones you want to try out. At the end of your meal, the staff will simply count up all your empty tapas boards and plates to work out your total bill. Available Monday to Wednesday all day as well as Thursday to Saturday between 12pm and 4pm.
