North Star Name-checked (Kind Of)

We had nice mention in The South Manchester Reporter on Thursday June 7th. In the Who's Who section Beth Buxton, 26, a local resident involved with the Chorlton Arts Festival was asked in an interview ....

Where is your favourite place in south Manchester?

"I absolutely love food [replied Beth], so I have two favourite places, The North Star Delhi [sic] and Barbakan. The North Star Delhi do the most amazing goats cheese, rocket and honey bagel..."

Later on Beth was asked...

How would you spend a perfect day in Manchester?

"I'd get up in the morning and go to the North Star Delhi for a really nice breakfast..."

Thanks Beth for those nice words (I owe you a coffee next time you're in!), but a note to the reporter, the copy editor and, indeed, the editor of The South Manchester Reporter... It may surprise you to learn that "Delhi" is not the diminutive for the word "delicatessen", but is in fact India's second largest city and you should all hang your heads in shame at such a pitiful copy error.

Let us know of any North Star name checks you spot, won't you - even if they're spelt wrong!

You're quite funny!
What about the mention of North Star in Mike Gayle's book 'Brand New Friend'. (It's not set in India)
