Including details of the WORD CLUB event at the Chemic Tavern tonight in Leeds where the 100 Thousand Poets for Change anthology, featuring two of my poems, will be launched, here are some ideas of things to do this weekend for those of my followers who live in or near to Leeds, London and New York:
|
Get a big fat
Chateaubriand for a bargain price, WIN a bar-hopping day out & find out
why opera is cooler than you think...
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Matt Healy's new cafe is now open. Grön Kafe is a
vegan-friendly eatery in Oakwood with a Scandinavian twist. Step inside
this distinctively different cafe where the living wall is adorned with
neon signs and tuck into a menu of simple yet exceptional dishes. Find
out what to expect from the city's newest opening...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Date night just got better because you can get a
Chateaubriand at Chez Mal for just £49. Designed to be shared between
two, this tasty deal also bags you a glass of prosecco on arrival, a
medley of sides and a bottle of wine.
|
|
|
|
To celebrate the 5th birthday of Kirkstall Bridge Inn and the 1st
birthday of The Cardigan Arms, we're giving you the chance to win a
beer-tastic day out. We're talking delicious meals, brewery tours and
Kirkstall Brewery's finest.
|
|
|
October is almost here and there are absolutely loads of
events to keep you busy. From the city's biggest Oktoberfest party to
international superstars and vegan comedy clubs, take a look and start
filling your diary.
|
|
|
|
|
Want to get fit? We've got the perfect event for you – TRIB3 is
inviting you to join them for a 45-minute workout, with a nutritional
talk, a glitter makeover and a mini sports massage for just £5.
|
|
|
|
You've seen the latest Britain's Got Talent acts belt out Nessun
Dorma, you might even have caught the end of BBC Proms, but that's
nothing in comparison to going to the opera. It can be as show-stopping
as a musical and as experimental as a play, so if you haven't been yet,
now's the time to try it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Endless curries, unlimited pizza, and yes, an ever-changing
selection of steaks, this is what you can look forward to at the city's
all you can eat restaurants. So put on your stretchy pants and get ready
for an almighty feed.
|
|
|
Ever tried abseiling? Now's your chance because Leeds Cares has
teamed up with Carnegie Great Outdoors to help you take the leap.
You can step off the Portland Building and take on the 35-metre drop
to the bottom.
|
|
|
|
It's almost decision time. Channel 4 will soon choose their new
National HQ and Leeds is a serious contender, but why should they choose
our fair city over the competition? We have the answer.

Hey
New Yorkers,
This season is
bringing in lots of new Pop-Up exhibits! The
Broken Windows Pop Up is in NYC, bringing attention toward social rifts
between the police department and lower income communities. 🎟🏙🕊
Rooted in culinary
tradition, the NYC neighborhoods of Flushing, Queens, and Chinatown, are
always serving up Congee through the day. The breakfast meal is a staple that
can be turned savory or sweet, and now you can try it at home with this authentic
recipe. 🍲👀😋
Sometimes absence
gives us the precious time and perspective we need to see everything more
clearly, and that's what takes place in, "The
City Born Great". Author N.K Jemisin gives audiences suspense and
mystery from the struggles of life as a homeless individual on New York's
streets. 👀📚🏙
It's time to relax
and smile, this feel-good exhibit at the MET is showcasing the art of
visionaries from grades Pre-K through to twelfth grade. The creativity and
inspiration bundled up in "The
Future Of New York" is refreshing and a must-see. 🎨🗽😍
It's hard to
decide where to shop with so many farmer's markets across the city. There are
some in every borough and they each showcase great produce at the prime of
their harvest, so how can you choose? Maybe you don't have to! Visit all of
the green markets in our farmers
market round-up. 💐🥖🥕

Greenmarket Grocery Guide
There
is an easy way to find the ripest fruits, veggies vibrant in color and
nutrients, soft artisan bread, fresh milk, delicious pastries, handcrafted
cheese, and farm-fresh eggs. Take the struggle out of your grocery shopping
and visit one of these farmer's markets!
Everything you
find from the vast array of vendors will be fresh, full of flavor and
wholesome! There are tons of locations, operating at different hours
during all days of the week. So, check out the list and find one in your
borough.

Bacon And Beer!
Sponsored by:
Play
some games and drink some beer at the Bacon and Beer Classic NYC. This
Flushing Meadows Biergarten has options for every taste bud — beer snob, or
not! Whether you prefer cider or a strong stout, this is one beer and food
fest you shouldn't skip out on!
|
|
Escaping Reality
Every
city feels as if it is an entity in and of itself, a being created by the
millions of lives that inhabit it now and have in the past. In this short
story written by Jemisin, we follow a young black homeless man just trying to
survive in NYC.
An older man named
Paulo helps him from time to time, buying him coffee and sandwiches in
exchange for someone to listen to his rants. One morning, Paulo’s rant goes
into the inner workings of the city, how it breathes and is ready for someone
to help it live.
Our main character
is wary of the breathing sounds he hears but assumes being homeless for so
long has warped his mind. The story begins to rapidly pick up as our narrator
is forced to run from both the NYPD and something much more sinister.

Languedoc Wine Time
Sponsored by:
Say
goodbye to your boxed vino and hello to some fancy French wine that won’t
break the bank.
This fall,
Languedoc wines will be taking over New York City and you definitely don’t
want to miss out on the chance to try some of these glorious grapes.
Throughout the
months of September and October, L’Aventure Languedoc will be celebrating the
most underrated wine region in France by offering special events, tastings
and promotions on Languedoc wines at various retailers and restaurants across
the Big Apple.

Rising Flow
If
you haven’t been listening to Sheck Wes, then you haven’t been on the latest
hype train. A former model out of Harlem, his first music video for his song
“Live SheckWes Die SheckWes” was an instant hit.
He then followed
it up with one of the biggest rap songs in recent months, “Mo Bamba."
Proving that he means business, Sheck Wes is now signed to both Kanye’s
G.O.O.D. Music and Travis Scott’s Cactus Jack. Crazy flows and a wild
personality have Sheck Wes rising quickly to the top.

The Future Of NYC
The
Future of New York is an annual show, hosted by the Met that displays artwork
from 123 different students from pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade. This
includes students from all five boroughs and School District 75, a district
serving children with disabilities.
The talent among
the students is immense and definitely provides comfort in knowing that these
future artists are being taught well in our public school system. On display
at the Met’s Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education, this show is a
bright spot for the future of New York City.
