There’s nothing quite like a very late lunch/early dinner with cocktails to kick off the weekend, is there? Recently Dan and I spent the tail end of a Friday afternoon in Jamie’s Italian Leeds, having been kindly invited to try out some of the new menu offerings.

Issho Leeds – Bao & Bubbles Brunch
I’ve had a run of missing out on fun stuff these last couple of months, with the teaching year drawing to a close and conference season kicking off.
