Chicken lovers will have to download the KFC app to be eligible. There will also be a bunch of freebies up for grabs each day.

You will be rewarded with a free six-piece chicken bucket if you order £10 worth of food, result.
You only get one free bucket with this promotion and the offer runs until March 12th, so use it wisely! Save it until you’re struggling until pay day, dying of a hangover or for when it’s your turn to make dinner.
All you need to claim the bucket of goodness is the app and the QR code. Whether you order directly at a counter, kiosk or drive through, you just need to open the app and present the QR code to be scanned.
But what if you want a delivery I hear you say? Well, the good news is, you can also claim the free bucket of fried goodies if you order your delivery directly through the app. The app allows you to check-in at a restaurant and get your free treat.
Other freebies can be claimed too, via a promotion called KFC Rewards Arcade. Once you’ve made a purchase a push notification will invite you to play an arcade game, where you’ll be in with a chance to win one of thousands of free meals being given away each day.

The ‘OTT’ group famous for its pasta served in a wheel of cheese and 10-level lasagnas is reportedly looking to open a new Italian restaurant in Manchester city centre.
French-based Big Mamma Group, which owns over-the-top Italian restaurants in London – Gloria, Carlotta, Jacuzzi, Ave Mario and Circolo Popolare – will open a new venue in Gary Neville’s under-construction St Michael’s development off Deansgate.
Its restaurants are known for their flamboyant, retro interiors, resembling vintage maximalism Italian eateries, as well as US-style red sauce joints.
The regularly changing menus feature a variety of Italian classics, including fettuccine alfredo al tartufo, spaghetti with meatballs, a famous ’10 level’ lasagne and carbonara served in a huge cheese wheel.
The Manchester restaurant will be the first UK venue to be located outside of London and will – sit alongside the also announced Japanese-Peruvian restaurant Chotto Matte, also to be built at St Michael’s.
The move follows a host of other operators in the capital choosing to open new sites in Manchester.
Soon to arrive in the city will be the likes of Caravan, Flat Iron, Soho House and Blacklock.
Big Mamma – which was founded in 2013 by French entrepreneurs Victor Lugger and Tigrane Seydoux – has more than 20 restaurants across Europe including Paris, Monaco, Milan, Madrid and Berlin.
