Zouk Tea Bar and Grill is hosting a charity dinner to raise money for the people of Gaza and Palestine.
The much-loved Manchester curry house is teaming up with Halal Dining Manchester (HDM) and Human Aid and Advocacy, the international organisation which supports survivors of war and persecution, to generate crucial funds for the countless civilians affected by the ongoing conflict.
With all proceeds going directly to the people of Palestine thanks to the efforts of Human Aid, the region will receive vital resources in the form of food packs, hot meals, water, hygiene kits and cash for families to purchase essential supplies.
People from all over Greater Manchester are being invited to come along and enjoy the feast and an array of mocktails whilst also helping do their bit.
Starting at 7pm, guests will sit down to a four-course meal featuring an array of traditional Indian and Pakistani dishes, as well as soft drinks and creative mocktails.
Once again, every penny from the tickets sold will go straight to the families of Gaza victims and other areas of Palestine, as well as a further charity auction and raffle following the dinner to bolster fundraising even more.
With Zouk‘s city centre venue always guaranteeing a vibrant atmosphere, further entertainment will also be confirmed closer to the event, which will be shared on the restaurant’s socials.

Speaking on behalf of Zouk, owner Tayub Amjad said: “We’re all in a truly fortunate position to wake up every day without fear that it might be our last.
“As the weeks have gone by watching the news coming out of Gaza is truly heartbreaking, we’re hoping for a strong turn-out on the night to support this event and help us raise as much money for Gaza as possible.”

This Manchester bar serves a bottomless cheese fondue with endless beer and wine
Georgina Pellant
There’s a bar in Manchester serving a bottomless cheese fondue with endless wine and beer, and it honestly sounds like the perfect treat.
While it might scream cosy winter night in, with a huge outdoor terrace, The Mews is also a firm favourite during the summer months.
Add in a board of melt-in-the-mouth charcuterie, springy pieces of garlic sourdough and a host of crunchy cheese biscuits, and you’ve got yourself the ideal afternoon if you ask us.
But there’s more. Alongside all that cheese and meat and bread, included in the price of The Mews’ bottomless fondue, cheese lovers can also enjoy 90 minutes of non-stop drinks.

Costing £37.50 each, included in the deal is a huge pot of melted Italian Fontina cheese served with homemade garlic croutons, sourdough crackers, and slices of British charcuterie.
You’ll also get to enjoy an hour and a half of endless pints of house pilsner and carafes of red or white wine to enjoy alongside.
Serving up to six people, the bottomless cheese fondue is available only when you pre-book, so make sure to get in touch ahead of your visit to let The Mews know that you’re coming.
If you’re not on the sauce, you can opt for the cheese fondue alone. Without the booze, it’s quite a bit cheaper at £25 for one, and £2.50 on top for any additional people who want to get stuck in.
Housed up on Deansgate Mews, just behind the main hustle and bustle of Deansgate, there’s plenty of space inside as well as a large, secluded terrace that is quite the suntrap (when the Manchester sun is shining).
Popular Manchester restaurant bar to give out FREE sausage rolls to people called ‘Greg’
Emily Sergeant
One of Manchester’s much-loved restaurant bars is doing a free sausage roll giveaway next week… but there’s a catch.
The catch being you have to have a certain name in particular.
It was only last week that popular high street chain Pret A Manger announced it would be slinging out free sandwiches to any Mancs with ‘Nic’ in their name over the late May bank holiday weekend, and now Tariff & Dale is getting it on the giveaway action, and it’s all to celebrate the iconic event that is National Sausage Roll Day.
In case you didn’t know – which is very likely, let’s be real – next Thursday (5 June) is the day dedicated to all things sausage roll.
So what better way to mark the occasion than with free portions of Tariff & Dale‘s legendary meaty treat?
The popular Northern Quarter restaurant bar is known for its creative comfort food, craft beers and cocktails, and laid-back industrial vibe, with one of the cult-classic dishes on its menu having always been the honey pork sausage roll – which just so happens to be a whopping 15-inches long, by the way.
Resembling something more of a pork wellington than a sausage roll, if you will, the dish is crispy, golden, and glazed with honey on top.
But to celebrate National Sausage Roll day, instead of parting with £9.50 for a portion or £48 for the full 15-inch thing, people with one specific name can actually get a slice for completely free of charge.

And that name is ‘Greg’, because if we’re honest, when it comes to sausage rolls, we all tend to think of Greggs.
So whether your surname is Gregory or Gregson, or you’re simply just called Greg, then all you need to do to claim your complimentary slice of sausage roll heaven is head on down to Tariff & Dale next Thursday 5 June from 12pm up until 9pm.
