A million miles away from anything else in Manchester, Australasia isn't bound by tradition or a set of ideas about how an ingredient should be cooked, what it goes with or how it should be served and award winning chef and former young Australian chef of the year, Paul Greening, epitomises this ethos perfectly. Its strong ties with China and Japan have also helped determine the style of cooking, particularly the Japanese desire for perfection. Intriguing from the outside and beautiful within, the bespoke glass entrance on Spinningfields Square, Deansgate, is sure to catch the eye, sweeping guests downstairs to the irresistible charms of the restaurant's amazing cuisine and relaxed ambience. With a 3am licence on Friday and Saturday, the late night bar will boast a compelling list of signature cocktails, an impressive wine list and electrifying guest DJs to keep the party going.
