CITYlife food & Drink Guide 2002

Deservedly the winner of the CITYlife Newcomer of the Year award 2000, Venetian Stefano Bagnoli and his wife Julie continue to make Palmiro a required destination for anyone who plans a serious Mancunian culinary tour. The dining room manages to juggle a certain bareness - softened by flowers - with the drama of full on blood red panelling. Indeed it looks a little home-made, and as such, sums up the joy of a visit here. The whole place is invigoratingly original, particularly the very high quality food from chef Lisa Walker. The menu - which changes monthly - is delightful, avoiding the cheap and flabby food found on many Italian menus in town , instead combining good ingredients (organic, non-gm) in ways that work. A real customer favourite is Sarde in Saor - a Venetian dish of deep fired sardines with layered onions in agrodolce.
