#5 All things sweet at Kaspa's Desserts, Leeds



Indulging in chocolate sundaes, ice cream desserts, waffles and more; we jumped at the chance to satisfy our sweet tooth cravings by visiting Leeds best and newest ice cream parlour last week. Bringing with it the new hype and glamour in all things sweet, Kaspa’s Desserts will simply not disappoint.

Nestled inside the The Core shopping centre there is something of a sweet tooth takeover; an explosion of sweet treats that will leave you every bit pleased that a visit to Kaspa’s Desserts was in fact a moment of genius. The reason is simple, the food is just as good to look at as it is to eat. Just as pleasing on the eye, the only problem you will face here is a distinct satisfying case of over indulgence and whisperings of cross table food envy.

The quality of food is excellent, prices are very reasonable and the service was fantastic. The menu is busy, but that does not compromise on flavour. There is a whole range on offer here and the variety appears to be an endless mix of toppings, sauces, sprinkles and flavours. We sat down to our seats and ordered a freshly baked peanut M&M® waffle covered with a rich and warm chocolate sauce and smooth strawberry ice cream. It tasted amazing and looked fantastic. Next up, the deliciously soft New York style baked cheesecake finished with a Brulee glaze and made with a super tasty Madagascan vanilla bean. It doesn’t stop here; the menu endlessly tempts the taste buds with cakes and puddings, glittering and show stopping sundaes and colourful milkshakes and smoothies. On top of this, and by now struggling, we ordered a hot fudge sundae. It came with warm fudge pieces, chocolate and vanilla ice cream with a Belgian chocolate sauce. Just like what had come before it, it tasted excellent. The hype surrounding this place is true and can only be truly appreciated by taking a visit. We left knowing full well that we will be returning soon.

Serving up deliciously sweet flavours on big plates and tall glasses, Kaspa’s Desserts is definitely one to try!

#23 Live Life More Italian - with a visit to the new city centre LIVINItaly Dough House

Image
LIVINItaly has long been seen as Leeds go to authentic independent Italian for those craving the best in pizza dough and that easy laid back Mediterranean atmosphere we all crave. In fact, LIVINItaly on Granary Wharf is almost its own little Italy with a sun trap which on the right day could have you believe you were in down town Rome or the Venice canals. Ok – I maybe getting ahead of myself rethinking Leeds has somehow transformed into our continental cousin but one thing is for certain - LIVINItaly does things really well – from their fresh food to brown bottled imported ales – it is hard not to be impressed with their stamp of authentic Italy firmly on Yorkshire. As if this slice of heaven on Granary Wharf wasn’t enough, the family behind LIVINItaly have opened up Leeds city centre Dough House. Located on Cloth Hall Street near to the corn exchange, Dough House is ultra chic, super trendy and typically Italian.


Their menu arrives as newspaper taking you through headline reads cover…

We headed down last Saturday to meet owners head chef John, business manager Justina and their four-month-old Black Market restaurant. Taking on a grade 2 listed renovation challenge and being told the job would be complete in 12 weeks, it wasn’t until September last year and six agonising months later when the first guests to Black Market arrived through the door. The wait had been worth it - Black Market is small, bright, modern, chic and every other word imaginable to describe a cool and trendy independent eatery in the heart of Chapel Allerton, Leeds. The look and feel tick every box, but it is the food which makes Black Market stand out as one of the most exciting places we have visited in a long time.


Without labelling its food, John and Justina are open about what they want Black Market to achieve. They are humble about its early success. They are taking small steps each day and appreciate every success which comes their way. ‘We didn’t want to l…

#24 Visiting the Midnight Bell – A Leeds Brewery gastro pub serving up British classics in the heart of Leeds South Bank.

Image
It was around 5.30pm when I stepped off the train last week - immediately greeted by Leeds usual charm – the platforms were busy as people gathered whilst others piled off trains to head out for the evening. I walked away from the crowds and the station and onto the building frenzy that is becoming the newly developed South Bank. Its an exciting time for Leeds to see this part of the city flourish with a buzz of things to come. Tonight I was heading to the heart of this newly developing urban village where old meets new. Industrial times are well remembered in these parts and buildings not being built keep a firm grip on how Leeds once was. One such place and where I was heading this evening was gastro pub and Leeds Brewery owned, the Midnight Bell. With a contemporary feel set alongside traditional brickwork and wooden beams – Leeds Brewery have done an excellent job in making the Midnight Bell a place to stop by, have a pint and enjoy well cooked food. Guest ales, bitters and bottl…
