I posted the link purely to show they were still trading in 2010.  O0

According to google maps, Salmon Street is located in the Shudehill area and although I'm not familiar with the premises it shouldn't be too hard to find.

Re your last point - no I haven't been to that part of the world - I think Altrincham is about the closest I've ever been.

I was told it came from the French "chanel" and spread northwards.  Maybe we just liked it better up North, while the Southerners moved onto the next wave of fashionable vocab!!  ;D ;D

It's nice to be important, but it's also important to be nice.
