"Leeds isn’t short of cracking curry houses by any means, but Tharavadu gets a special mention here for its Kerala cuisine. The menu, inspired by the south-west state of Kerala in India, includes traditional street foods, breakfast dishes, soups and dosa, with handy explanations of the cultural significance of its dishes. It also offers an express lunch deal with a feast of three curries, a side dish, rice, dosa and chutneys, for less than a tenner."

"The Malayalam word ‘tharavadu’ roughly translates as keeping traditions alive – and that’s certainly the ethos of this charming Keralan restaurant, which you’ll find just across the road from Leeds train station. They cover a wide variety of southern Indian dishes, among which you’ll find some unusual treats. Time Out tip: Look out for crab cooked in coconut sauce, excellent fried lentil doughnuts and toffee-filled steamed rice cake."

"Award winning Indian restaurant Tharavadu serves up tasty Indian cuisine from Kerala in a modern, chic venue. What’s really impressive is that this venue was recommended in the Michelin restaurant guide in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019!. Kerela cuisine has a multitude of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes prepared using fish, poultry and red meat, meaning there’s something on this menu for everyone."

"Melton’s is renowned for serving high-quality food in a relaxed and informal atmosphere, with a fine selection of wines; it is one of York’s leading restaurants. Since the opening hours are limited, it would be better to make a reservation prior to your visit. The pleasant staff will guide you through the menu and will find the most suitable wine for your options."

"One of the perfect spots with a warm and precious atmosphere. The food is excellent as well as paired perfectly with lovely wines. Address : 7 Scarcroft Rd, York YO23 1ND, UK"

"Located in a historic, listed building on Vicar Lane, The luxurious Ivy Victoria Quarter is situated within the Victoria Quarter arcade. Open seven days a week, the restaurant offers breakfast, weekend brunch, lunch, afternoon tea, light snacks and dinner, as well as astonishingly good cocktails (we had a few – for research purposes, of course). Every part of The Ivy is thoroughly Instagrammable, from the two terraces and beautiful bar, to the restaurant and possibly the prettiest loos I’ve ever seen!"

"What: There are few restaurant groups with prettier interiors than The Ivy Collection. At The Ivy Victoria Quarter, you can cosy up in the jewel box dining room while tucking into breakfast time favourites, such as scrambled eggs with smoked salmon or buttermilk pancakes topped with a medley of fruit. There are fresh juices and coolers too.Where: Vicar Lane, LS1 6BB"

"The Ivy is an eclectic all-day restaurant where you can indulge in a loaded stack of pancakes. Their hot buttermilk pancakes are topped with strawberries, raspberries and blackberries, then smothered in Greek yoghurt, lemon balm and warm strawberry sauce for a delicious alternative to the norm. Get ‘em until 11am on weekdays or until 4pm on the weekend."

"This is a typically large and, in many ways, unlovely city-centre pub. Early evening, midweek, it was noisy with random music; busy with large groups post-work; and high on one wall (my personal bête noire, this), a lonely TV relayed BBC News 24 on mute. But, boy, does Mr Foley’s serve cracking beer."
