Re: Nouvelle cuisine in Rishton. Help?

I think the name of the first restaurant around here producing nouvelle cuisine in the late eighties, was Tiffany's.

On confirmation Yerself is getting some karma, for stopping this buzzing around in my bonce.

Good, however, that was in reply to Ken's post re. one at the junction of Lowerfold with Church Street which is Great Harwood. 'Course there is a Church Street in Rishton too .. is there an old co-op building on there ?

This is getting funnier. Think we are going to have to send you to some sort of Hypnotist for regression treatment... !

Re: Nouvelle cuisine in Rishton. Help?

I was born and bred in Rishton - spent the first 26 years of my life in Harwood Road and loved the place. My dad was secretary of the Conservative club for many years, but I left in the 60's before the nouvelle cuisine revolution.

Now you are making it worse Ken !!

Seems to me, Garinda's restaurant so far is not in a Co-op building or Rishton. It will turn out that it was not a decor of black and white next; probably orange and red, selling lashings of steak and kidney pud with slop peas !

Keep it quiet but....I love the Con Club. Shhhh!

The nearest we have to nouvelle cuisine now is Auberge, which is a bit pricey but you're guaranteed a good meal and good service.

The Atlantic Fish Bar on George Street is my preference for 'eating out' in Rishton as the Friday night ritual of a chippy tea is still an incentive to get through the week.

Lol, shut it.

It was nearly quarter of a century ago, and it was dark, and I didn't drive there.

I did mention it could have been in Arrod....and it was decorated black and white, and it did serve nouvelle cuisine.

It was definitely a guacamole, not a mushy peas, sort of place.

Re: Nouvelle cuisine in Rishton. Help?

Looks like you owe Yerself that karma Garinda ... see this :

Chef in 'buy local' plea (From Lancashire Telegraph)

' Among them were Neil Wigglesworth, executive chef at Twin Farms in Vermont, USA, described as the best hotel in the world.

Neil grew up in Accrington and ran Tiffany's Restaurant in Great Harwood for several years'

Hope you get a good night's sleep tonight...

My Mum's just been, and I said Yerself had remembered the name Tiffany's, and she said that's it!

Well done Yerself, many thanks, and to everyone else who helped us get there.

'Sell-out' suggests otherwise.


Unless there's a conspiracy theory, that all the patrons were bussed in from down south.

That's Ok Garinda .. only took 4 pages of posts to sort it and driving us all crazy

Heather fed Bowland Lamb !! Suppose you are what you eat, and what they eat is what you eat .. that didn't quite come out right somehow.
