New to Manchester- tuesday night ideas for birthday

My husband and I moved to Manchester two weeks ago. His birthday is tomorrow. Quite opposite to me, he likes to celebrate his birthdays in a big way. Back in our previous city, he would invite around 40,50 friends and have a big party or picnic.

In Manchester, we are yet to make friends. I think he is feeling quite nostalgic about this. So, I wanted to plan something for tomorrow. A bike ride during the day and ending with a nice restaurant with live music. He likes to try new restaurants and I think middle eastern or south east asian or a nice british pub would be my choices.

But, I am very bad at organizing. Any suggestions that people have for bike paths that are nice? And any restaurant suggestions in the city centre or towards southern/ southeast Manchester? Thank you in advance :)

etci mehmet is good for that, it's cuisine is more turkish, grilled meats, sald etc. they also do a litle fire show in front of you from what i have seen - also if you tell them it's for your partner's birthday theyll deffo get some sparklers out, sing happy birthday etc.
