PROJECT OUTLINE:
City centre dining is being revitalised with the introduction of OSQA, a new restaurant and deli, situated in the City Gate development on Oldham Square.
OSQA (pronounced Oscar and derived from an abbreviation of Oldham Square) provides the perfect ambience for food lovers to relax and enjoy fine food, with its prime location, extensive menus and outside seating area.
Head chef, Lloyd Chen, in conjunction with top TV chef, Nigel Smith, has created the eclectic menu which includes English, Mediterranean and Pan American cuisine. The deli also gives OSQA an unusual twist, selling a la carte dishes, gourmet sandwiches, soups and pastas to recreate restaurant style food at home.
Owner Moureen Nolan, has invested a six figure sum in bringing a touch of La Dolce Vita to Liverpool’s Oldham Square. She said: “Liverpool is really embracing a Cafe culture lifestyle and we wanted to create a restaurant that took it one step further. The deli gives us a real edge and I’m passionate about making restaurant quality food accessible to everyone – whether you’re sitting in OSQA or you’re eating at home.”
OSQA’s 120 seat restaurant, bar and deli opens its doors on 30th July and with its location in an up-and-coming part of the city is well placed to capitalise on life beyond the 2008 celebrations.
Catering Complex has designed and built the complete kitchens, delicatesen and bar for the client. Maureen nolan said "In my time I have not forund any other company who care about a project as much as we do. They really have been incredible, we would have struggled to build the venue without them.
