Macclesfield's cinema-turned-food hall has a new vendor.

Picturedrome on Chestergate has welcomed Chilli B to its lineup of independent traders.

Taking over the kitchen previously occupied by Send Noods, the team at Chilli B are serving up authentic Thai cuisine.

A spokesperson for Picturedrome said: "New to Picturedrome but not new to us, we've been around Chilli B's Steve and May for a long time, since the 1990's in fact when Steve ran the legendary Chiang Rai on the edge of Manchester's China Town. 

"They're locals, they live in Wilmslow, but they also have a home in May's home village back in Thailand.

"Their food is not only the genuine article (May has written some of the best Thai cookbooks) it's the best - they've been knocking it out of the park at Mackie Mayor in Manchester for the last five years. 

"We're giving Chilli B a warm welcome to Picturedrome, in return, they promise they're gonna spice up our lives."
