21 Leeds restaurants which would never get a Michelin star but we love anyway
"New kids on the block and another reliably run family business. Wen’s are known for their handmade, pan-fried dumplings and bustling evening service. If you are looking for a personal Chinese dining experience be sure to check out our client Little Yellow Rice Co, for their Peranakan, Chinese-Malay supper club events at Littleyellowriceco.uk"
"Many of the reviews for Wen's praise the restaurant's "authentic" dishes which have proved to be a high hit. One man left a glowing review after his first visit. He said: "Flavour was great throughout; rich and rewarding, but with enough subtleties to keep things delicate - my lamb had a well-judged level of chilli, and was lean and moist."
"Wens is a new addition to Leeds’ dining scene, and they have already made the mark with tourists, locals, even a famous critic. Taking over Hansa’s North street space, Wens specialise in authentic family Chinese cooking. The Dan Dan noodles, dumplings, and Kung Po Chicken are all musts."

"Another on is Cuthbert Boderick’s architectural designs in Leeds is the Corn Exchange. Situated alongside Kirkgate -the oldest street in Leeds, it was completed by 1864. Probably one of the most beautiful examples of Victorian architecture in the city, it was built with an impressive glass dome roof to allow merchants to see the corn they were purchasing from traders."
"Leeds Corn Exchange is a beautiful Victorian, grade 1 listed building. In the past it was used to trade grains, but it is now home to lots of independent shops, such as music stores, vintage clothes shops and a tattoo and piercing salon and some food outlets. It even hosts some cool events such as roller discos!"
