Hi, bit of a longshot...........

Im collecting a car full of expensive scientific gear from just off Oxford Road on Sunday morning

By the time the car is loaded it will be around lunchtime and I'll be hungry

Before heading east to the M62 I'd like to grab a quick bite to eat, preferably something tasty not a McD's, but Im worried that an estate car obviously full of stuff will be too big a temptation for ne'er do wells and I dont need this stress

So any suggestions for a fajita, kebab or any other street food I can either take away or eat in with the car safely in view would be warmly received. I have a feeling the curry mile is nearby...........

Cheers

If you can be bothered, West Didsbury area -

Metropolitan would get my vote. Big car park and usually a guy on duty. Otherwise all three you can park outside, and sit outside.

Then straight out onto the M60 - to go to leeds go via stockport (trafford centre sunday afternoon traffic on M60 is a nightmare..) it's further, but quicker.

Come back down the East Lancs and stop at Albert's. Then 2 mins from the M60/1/2 junction.

Central Manchester parking is a true horror show so I cant think of anywhere.

If you are lucky you may bag a spot outside rusholme chippy for a superb kebab but that's not always possible.

If you want to be physically looking at the car whilst eating then it isn't going to be very enjoyable anyway is it?

The NCP next to The Bridgewater Hall is relatively safe IMO. Oxford STREET smile

The suspense of what OP actually did is killing me.. Has he flounced? Did OP get a chip butty? or something more delicatessen?

Rusholme Chippy does a decent Kobeda but Camel One across the road is better at everything (apart from Chips)
