Choice Cuts Sandinista
Head chef Shane Adams talks us through the menu on offer at the Nicaraguan-themed tapas bar.
“This is not a typical place to come and eat. Many different people come here to eat and they all eat in different ways. A lot of people will come to the bar order a few little snacks – some marinated olives (£2.95) and anchovies (£3.95), they take 30 seconds to come through, it’s a quick bite and pint and then they’re off again. Meal wise people generally come in… Read more...
A Bartender's Life Find a Hobby
An insight into the life of Mojo cocktail man Lee Jones
When you have that lovely night off and you are trying to figure some sort of activity to pursue that doesn’t involve sitting around in your pants watching all series of ‘24’ back to back – you can find yourself stumped. There’s the cinema? Maybe bowling? – annnnnnnd then I’m out – it’s a hilariously genuine struggle for me to partake in some social event without it involving having a… Read more...
Chef's Special Robert Black, Lounge Bar & Grill
Every fortnight, the region's top chefs share their culinary secrets with a recipe for you to try at home – this fortnight smoked mackerel pate, warm salad of smoked mackerel, new potatoes and watercress
Robert Black has recently been installed as head chef at Merrion Street’s Lounge, Bar & Grill. He joined the Leeds restaurant some five months ago, and has been serving food across the venue’s two floors – their more laid back bar and their fancier supper room. His food has also been used to pair the wines and beers on offer at the venue’s regular tasting events.

Food Review Arti
Chapel Allerton's Old Police Station has become a thoroughly modern Indian restaurant, says Tom Goodhand
Chapel Allerton is an area hardly short of food and drink establishments. Just stand on Stainbeck Corner and take a look around the streets in front of you: they’re teeming with cafes, restaurants, bars and the like. Thus, for a place to do well in this part of LS7, they must be doing something right.
We visited Arti on a wet and windy Monday evening (great summer we’re having, no?)… Read more...
Bar Review The Stables
Just beyond Headingley lies Weetwood, and hidden behind Weetwood Hall hotel is a great little summer pub
While Headingley is famous for the quantity of its pubs, rather than the quality (apart from one or two exceptions), its next neighbour to the north, Weetwood, is in the reverse position, having very few pubs, but some really good ones.
The Stables isn’t the kind of pub that you just chance upon wandering around north Leeds. It’s hidden away at the back of Weetwood Hall conference centre and hotel,… Read more...
Bartender's Choice Paul Hyde, The Wellington
Where the stars behind the bars reveal their favourite drinks
Bar supervisor Paul tells us that “absolutely everything” has changed at The Wellington pub since the new owners took over earlier in the year. “Every table, every chair, walls, pictures… I used to work at The Wardrobe and my manager here used to work there and she asked me to come here, and when I came over here and the first thing I saw, I couldn’t believe it. But now… Read more...
