00:00 Starting with the brindley place in the city's west side district, this little
00:08 haven just off Broad Street is home to around 20 restaurants. It includes the
00:13 likes of popular high street chains such as the Slug and Lettuce, Wagamama,
00:18 All Bar One and Turtle Bay, as well as a few more upmarket experiences. It's also
00:25 home to Rudy's, a new and upcoming pizzeria that has been spreading rapidly
00:29 over recent years. Brindley Place is a great option for those wanting to line
00:34 their stomachs before a night out on the town in Broad Street, but with all its
00:38 bars, offers a great night out on its own.
00:43 Another great option is of course the Chinese Quarter. There are over 40
00:52 restaurants in the area with cuisines spanning all across the Asian continent.
00:57 A few of the many worth mentioning would be the hidden gem Peach Garden, all you
01:02 can eat Ming Moon and Cheung Ying, who won the award for the best dumplings in
01:07 2022. The Chinese Quarter is a bustling area of the city that has huge
01:13 celebrations every year for the Lunar New Year. It's also home to the Hippodrome
01:18 and adjacent to the Guy Village, meaning it's a great option for those looking
01:23 for a decent meal before a great show or night out. And without question the areas
01:35 surrounding Cathedral Square, such as Temple Row and Cornwall Row, offer some
01:39 extraordinary culinary gems. Offering some class and distinction, it's home to
01:45 some of the finest restaurants the city has to offer both old and new. To give
01:49 mention to a couple of these newcomers, the Arel Bar, which offers what is
01:53 arguably the most mesmerizing views of Birmingham than any public venue has to
01:58 offer, as well as exquisite food. Another more recent newcomer is of course Six
02:03 Boy Nicos, offering a creative dining experience that changes every six weeks.
02:09 It also has well entrenched establishments such as Adams, Purnells,
02:14 Opus and the Ivy. It's just a stone's throw away from the High Street, offering
02:19 a sense of luxury and sophistication, as well as some gorgeous food. This guide is
02:26 for the heart of the city centre, but it would be a sin not to mention a few
02:30 places that put Birmingham on the culinary map. Herbert's Yard in Lungbridge
02:35 needs to be mentioned, owned by Digbeth Dining Club, who are legends in the
02:40 street food scene. The Balty Triangle also holds significance beyond many
02:44 other places when it comes to Birmingham's culinary heritage, home of
02:48 the famous Birmingham Balty, south of Birmingham along the Lydiepool Road.
02:52 When it comes to food, the United Kingdom's second city truly proves
02:58 itself to be second to none.
