Fumo

Manchester


This glass-fronted restaurant specialises in Venetian-style tapas known as cicchetti – you can take your pick from a broad-ranging menu that includes a variety of carpaccios, pasta, meats and even mini-pizzas. It's part of the same group that run the equally good San Carlo Cicchetti on the ground floor of House of Fraser.
