The Aumbrey comes to Chorlton


Following the success of Beth Creedon’s ‘Wild Food’ last month, Electrik presents Guestrant (No 5) on Monday 21st June. Husband and wife chef team, Laurence Tottingham and Mary Ellen McTague take a night off from Aumbry in Prestwich and offer their food expertise in the Electrik kitchen for this one-off gastronomic experience.

They will be delivering a 3 course meal of culinary surprises for one night only.

Aumbry has become a destination restaurant since it opened in October 2009, Laurence and Mary Ellen spent 4 years as part of the 3 Michelin-star team at Heston Blumenthal’s Fat Duck restaurant in Berkshire, before they decided to open their own place in Prestwich. Although the food they cook at Aumbry isn’t like the Fat Duck, as such, they do use a lot of the cooking techniques leant there including using Sous Vide and a water bath to cook meat and fish.

Laurence and Mary Ellen wanted to use the opportunity that Guestrant provides to show some very typical Aumbry dishes, using lots of great Lancashire and Cheshire produce. There will be no specific theme for the night ~ they will be simply offering a different audience a snapshot of what they do at Aumbry.

Tickets for this gastronomic event are £25 each. Places are strictly limited.

Electrik is at 559 Wilbraham Road, Chorlton, Manchester M21 0AE.
