A glamorous Chinese restaurant in Leeds has launched a new bottomless brunch and, by our calculations, it might just be one of the most expensive in the world.
Glitterati favourite Tattu has revealed the menu for its new Sunday event a Tribe of Tattu brunch – set to run on every bank holiday in April and May – ahead of its launch on 30 April.
Frequented by local celebs including Leeds United's Junior Firpo, the restaurant’s swanky new May bank holiday bottomless brunch offers guests three courses for £47.50, with more optional add-ons bringing its potential food total to a whopping £82.50.
Add on to that various drinks packages priced at £50, £28.50 and £20 respectively, and the most expensive option totals somewhere in between £115.50 and £132.50 a head.
The steep price puts Tattu’s brunch firmly among the world’s ten most expensive bottomless brunches, outstripping the Michelin-starred Blue Bay brunch in Monaco with bottomless glasses of Moët et Chandon vintage 2013 (£120), and The Waldorf Astoria’s famous bottomless brunch in New York (£100).

Dish choices, that said, do sound stunning. Options on Tattu's new brunch menu include the likes of chicken truffle shumai, tuna sashimi blossom and salt & pepper loin ribs for starters, followed by mains of red snapper tom yum or wok fired chicken and steamed jasmine.
Optional 'stage two' menu add-ons, meanwhile, include a mouthwatering caramel soy-aged black wagyu beef fillet (£18), and Shanghai black cod with hoisin, ginger and lime(£17).
The brunch is then finished off with a stunning 'Cherry Blossom' dessert with white chocolate, cherry and candyfloss, bringing the restuarant's famous sakura trees to life on the plate.
Drinks packages are then added on separately, with the most expensive option - a freely flowing champagne package of Laurent Perrier Brut - priced at £50 per person.
Alternatively, guests can opt for the signature package offering a selection of non-stop cocktails including Skull Candy (Crystal Head vodka, candy and lemon) and Koko Tattu (Bacardi, coconut and lime) for £28.60 per person.
There is also a non-alcoholic bottomless drinks package on offer with two virgin mocktails - a virgin Mountain Spritz (Everleaf Mountain, Lavender and bubbles) and Sweet Skullduggery (Kiwi, blueberry and apple) - to choose from.
Running at Tattu on Bank holiday Sundays throughout April and May, the menu does not state how long the drinks packages run for.
However, staff at Tattu told The Manc that it all depends on how big your group is: so a table of two would enjoy 1 hour and 45 minutes of endless drinks, whilst a table of three or four would be given two hours of bottomless booze 'and so on'.
Asked how long a larger group of eight would be given to enjoy their endless champagne or cocktails, The Manc was informed it would be 2 hours and 45 minutes.

A new açai cafe promising to be Leeds’ ‘neighbourhood social club’ is opening soon
An independent açai bowl pop-up is opening a permanent cafe in Leeds city centre.
It seems the açai bowl trend isn't over just yet, and we're absolutely not mad about it.
The aesthetically purple frozen treat isn't just delicious, but is also known to have numerous health benefits making it guilt-free and the perfect post-workout pick me up.
You may remember Açai Social Club that opened as a pop-up in the Victoria Quarter last year, and now they're moving into a permanent spot in the city centre.
Run by a lovely husband and wife duo who have spent the last 15 months exploring cafes around the world, it's safe to say they know exactly what they're talking about.
Their açai is made with the very best ingredients, topped with the freshest fruit and sprinkled with their homemade granola - it doesn't get much better then that does it?
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, they said: "Açai Social Club is getting a home. Our very first store is officially on the way! We’ve been working behind the scenes to create a space that’s more about than just açai.
"What started as an idea is finally becoming something you can walk into…There’s still a lot we’re keeping under wraps for now, but we’re so excited to finally share the beginning of what’s to come.
"We can’t wait to open our doors and welcome you in. Your new neighbourhood social club, coming soon."
The exact location of the cafe and its opening date is still under wraps, but we'll of course keep you updated as and when we find out.
The Leeds Supper Club bringing people together over incredible food
Clementine Hall
What started as a simple idea around food has grown into something much bigger for Leeds Supper Club.
The idea was born from a love of food and the idea that eating together can be about much more than what’s on your plate.
Rather than simply going out to a restaurant, Leeds Supper Club puts connection at the heart of its events, bringing people together to share incredible food and enjoy an evening in good company.
We had the pleasure of attending their most recent event where we had the most wonderful evening with founders Lizzie, Phillip and the rest of the club.

This instalment was a very special one, as it was in collaboration with Knotfield Vine over in Horsforth.
I mean, it really doesn't get more scenic than this - we really felt like we'd been whisked away to the South of France rather than a Leeds suburb. But we wouldn't want it either way.

What makes it a cut above the rest is the details. Every little detail has been thought out, from the low-lit, sexy lighting, hand-made name plates, live music and four courses of wonderful seasonal goodness made fresh.
From enjoying a glass of wine within the vines alongside a couple of nibbles to tucking into a three course meal around a candle-lit table, there's really nowhere else like it.

The tagliatelle pasta with beef and whipped feta was a real highlight, and knowing Lizzie and Philip receive help on the menu and the cooking from all their friends made it taste that much sweeter.
By the end of it we'd had some delicious food, fabulous wine and shared even better conversation. And it's safe to say we left feeling a part of the club.
