Publisher's Synopsis
From quirky home-grown cafes to sleek city-centre restaurants and off-the-beaten-track country pubs, The Leeds and West Yorkshire Cook Book offers a veritable slice of the region's burgeoning food and drink scene. These include The Box Tree in Ilkley, which has held a Michelin star for over ten years, one of the city's finest eateries, Craft House, as well as the likes of Bondgate Bakery, Stockdales of Yorkshire and Bundobust. Combining original recipes with stories and anecdotes from the independent businesses that make the city and its surroundings thrive, this book is your guide to the area, one forkful at a time. Whether you fancy something hearty and traditional like beef cheek bourguignon, roast woodland pigeon, or Shipley hogget, or if you're after a taste of something different such as a dandelion and burdock cake, Brazilian breakfast or festive chicken bastilla, the dishes amongst these pages reflect the true diversity of our city and beyond.
