Doesn't look like from outside but inside is completely different. They have 3 levels with 3 different style restaurants. The food was absolutely amazing and worth every penny. Also the service was some of the best I've experienced in a long time. Would highly recommend

Excellent new restaurant which opened in Manchester at the end of 2017. The restaurant is split into 2 levels - the lower level is the more "traditional" restaurant with noodle and rice dishes. The rice dishes change weekly.
The ground floor level is for (Chinese) hot pot. Also known as steamboat or also "da bin lo". Basically with Chinese hot pot you get a pot with broth in it and you put in different raw ingredients and you cook it yourself. Each ingredient only takes a few minutes to cook each and it all adds to the flavour of the broth.
At One Plus, which is a fairly unique thing (certainly in the UK), is you get your own pot and you control it yourself. This means you like things spicy and someone else doesn't, thats fine since you have your own pot. All the ingredients are on a conveyor belt similar to sushi places like Yo Sushi. You just pick the ingredients, all on different plates to represent the different price and you cook it yourself. So if its something like some spinach, thats £1 but if you get something like scallops, this cost more (£4).
Food tasted great. Friendly staff. Great service.
This was my first stop after my train journey from Glasgow. There were 3 of us and we wanted hotpot! This is hotpot with a difference. Unlike traditional hotpot, you get your own broth pot. Choose from a range of chicken, spicy, veggie or tom yum. 2 of us opted for chicken. The other was undecided as to whether she wanted a bit of spice or not the owner suggested a split pot - yes!! This is an option! Best of both worlds! Then you simply choose whatever you want from the conveyor belt - sectioned into various categories - veg; seafood; beef, pork, lamb - all kinds of offerings even for the very fussy and more adventurous diners (tripe anyone?).
We had plenty to eat - all of which was very fresh! Look at our stack! Next time we are going to the noodle and rice bar (same owners) for some traditional handpulled noodles.
Do give it a try if you're in the area. Innovative dining and very relaxed atmosphere too.
