With oodles of restaurants in Leeds,
it'll come as no surprise that some of them defy convention. You can cook
your own dinner, watch as your chef performs tricks and tuck into all
manner of unlikely eats at the most unusual restaurants in Leeds. Where will
you start?

Fancy a luxurious weekend in the
capital? With our latest competition, you could stay
at Threadneedles Hotel, grab dinner at Duck & Waffle and
visit Madame Tussauds London, with first class train tickets there
and back.

|
|
|
With over 200 people on the streets of
Leeds at last count, it's time for a big change – and that's exactly what
we're getting. But it doesn't just lie with the council, it sits with all
of us, which is why a new campaign has been launched to help bring
people, businesses and charitable organisations together to
drive lasting change.

Make this the year you try the awesome
adventure activities available in Yorkshire. From quad biking to
climbing, parachuting to skiing, there's something for everyone here. And
if you don't know where to start, our handy list of what to tick off your
bucket list will help.

Leeds Playhouse will present a bold new
take on Hamlet this March. Not only is it set in the modern day, but
Hamlet is a woman, a university student no less, and you can win tickets
with dinner at Zaap.
|
|
|
|
Tucked away down side streets and hidden
in plain sight, these secret apartment buildings are well worth seeking
out. Expect original features and cool contemporary furnishings.
|

The big day is almost here and if you've
got someone to impress, you need to know where to go. So we've made a
list of the best Valentine's Day restaurants in Leeds – and they're not
all blindingly expensive. You'll find down to earth street food joints
alongside elaborate tasting menus – but which will you choose?

Pierre Bonnard's 'The Colour of
Memory' at Tate Modern
Bonnard’s
dreamy views of everyday life see beauty in the ordinary; they
are nostalgic for the fleeting moment. His vibrant use of colour
creates a bridge to abstraction and reportedly influenced
Rothko’s palette; now it illuminates the 21st century – fresh,
and yet familiar. Expect to crave golden hour in Provence
afterwards.
