First post in a long time, but recently managed to get out to visit one of the best lunch time Italian restaurants hidden in the suburbs of Leeds. Trattoria Il Forno is a quaint place, with wood logs making up the wall complemented by a great view of the roaring fire pizza oven. I’ve never… Read More Trattoria Il Forno
It’s always important to catch up with your friends that you haven’t seen in a while. Whilst looking for somewhere to eat in Leeds it’s fair to say that there is an abundance of choice and a quick Google of early bird/pre-theatre etc. etc. will give you near unlimited choice of Leeds exquisite dining scene.… Read More Jamie’s Italian
There is a vast amount of choice when it comes to eating in Leeds. However, my top top is to have a look around for early bird and lunch menus and you’ll be able to eat somewhere decent for a couple of quid more than you’d spend at Greggs (and probably the equivalent to McDonalds… Read More Miller and Carter – The Headrow
The weather has been stunning recently, and on a friends recommendation I decided to visit Porto, in Bowness-in-Windermere. Easy to find behind the main street, Porto is an Italian which has rave reviews, and rightly so. Situated on a street that honestly smelt delicious this restaurant is a gem. We were lucky enough to sit… Read More Porto Windermere
Holidaying in the UK gets a bad rep but we have some of the best spa facilities in the world. After visiting Formby Hall, we used their excellent facilities in the spa including pool, massages and bento box with a beer. We also ate in their restaurant The Fairway Grill and the food was delicious.… Read More Formby Hall Golf Resort
Italian food seems to be my achiles heel at the moment. Indulgent, simple and fresh. This is my 2nd visit to Culto, and after hitting up the delicious ravioli last time I wanted to try one of their pizzas after eyeing up the other tables. When you eat at Culto you get seated but you… Read More Early Sunday at Culto
I was recently lucky enough to be invited (albeit as a +1) to Gusto in Cookridge recently by my colleague Jennie who has an amazing blog here. If you flick through my blog you’ll be able to see that I am a foodie, and trying to become a more committed blogger. If you looked at my waistline,… Read More Gusto Cookridge Summer Menu
Have Bundobust been taken over by the Deer Park as my favourite place to eat in Leeds? I’m still unsure. Based on the starters, I think it would have overtaken it. We went for the breads, olives and oil. Because, we were hungry. They do a fantastic lunch menu, but their full menu also looks… Read More Deer Park – Street Lane
What can I say, all you can eat meat. The carnivorous amongst you will absolutely bloody love it. After an on-going argument with my better half about what medium-rare is meant to look like (she was obviously wrong, and thought medium to well was medium rare…) we decided to visit Fazenda. Fully booked on the… Read More Fazenda – Leeds
Tapas! Tapas! Tapas! Sometimes done well, sometimes absolutely abysmal. Thankfully Pintura falls into the first category. Although they offer delicious food, and a twist on traditional tapas, this probably isn’t one for those on a budget. Whilst not overly expensive, I think it would be unfair to categorise these guys on the budget end of… Read More Pintura Leeds
