Who doesn’t like an Easter hunt with a chocolate treat at the end? Well, just to warn you, it’s not exactly as sold…

I’ve got one family pass (for up to four people) to give away to one lucky family for Monday 2nd May at Harewood House!
The Turk’s Head, Leeds
Positioned down a Dickensian style alleyway, behind the 300 year old Whitelocks, is a new venue, called The Turk’s Head. It used to be a function room for Whitelocks, which was rarely used, and in such a prime location it was crying out to be opened. It would have been easy to simply extend Whitelocks into this space, but […]
Easter is only a week away, so if your kids are getting stir crazy I have some great Easter craft ideas for them. (The ideas are outlined below, and you can find the methods on a post I wrote here.) Salt Dough Easter Eggs are easy to make, and you probably have everything you need in […]
WIN: A Hotel Chocolat Easter Egg
I have one Caramel Chocolate Scrambled Easter Egg to give away! This hollow caramel chocolate Easter egg really shows off our chocolatiers’ artistic flair, painted with an exciting scramble of chocolate drizzles. It comes showcased in a beautiful foiled box with six Scrambled Pralines – our super-smooth signature praline recipe sealed in caramel chocolate. A special […]

I wouldn’t normally choose a veggie pie, as I’ve yet to come across one that sounds particularly enticing. However, Pieminister went all out to create something to tempt even […]
Wolf Street Food, Leeds
A brand new street food concept has landed in Leeds, and it’s all Italian. Wolf Street Food opened recently, providing fresh, quality Italian food, for busy people on-the-go. The name of the venture can be traced to the legend of Romulus and Remus (twin boys raised by a wolf, with Romulus being credited with the founding of Rome) and the fact that Italy’s […]
Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil
The next product up for review for The BBC Good Food Show is Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil. Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil is a natural product of high quality. You can it’s natural because it’s cold pressed (if oil isn’t cold pressed, chemicals are used to extract the oil from the seed). I sound knowledgeable don’t I?! Well, […]
The Rainbow Factory is an interactive adventure for children that brings stories to life. (If you haven’t been to the Rainbow Factory before, read my previous post about it here.) This weekend we headed back to there to explore the new theme that has just launched; SPACE. When we arrived, Emilia immediately became shy and nervous […]
