Ten restaurants held together less by cuisine than by one map: the city centre end to end, most of it a few minutes apart on foot. They also share a rhythm \u2014 every kitchen here takes orders into the late evening, and every one works on a Sunday. The line runs from the canal side at Brindleyplace, where Turtle Bay Brindleyplace Birmingham and Piccolino Birmingham sit, past Chamberlain Square with Dishoom Birmingham and La Bellezza Birmingham, and on to the shopping crowds around the Bullring.<\/p>\n

Choose by the room as much as by the menu. La Bellezza Birmingham and Tattu Birmingham are built to be looked at, and in both the setting is half the occasion. Piccolino Birmingham and Gusto Italian – Birmingham are the calmer Italians, candlelight and an unhurried pace; at La Bellezza Birmingham and Piccolino Birmingham alike a table is worth booking ahead. Fat Hippo Birmingham and Banana Tree Birmingham Bullring ask nothing of you but an appetite. The Ivy Temple Row holds the British corner, and Dishoom Birmingham opens in the morning and carries straight through to a late dinner.<\/p>\n<\/header>\n
