Fancy mixing up your usual office lunch? Well, look no further than Trinity Kitchen.
Offering an eclectic mix of vendors, customers this season can expect everything from fluffy bao buns and crispy falafel to indulgent parmos.
Making its triumphant debut at Trinity Kitchen, Fat Cat Bao is serving up a bold fusion of Asian street food with their fluffy and airy bao buns.
Each bun is generously filled with your choice of chicken or tofu and finished with a vibrant mix of fresh garnishes.

Next up, newcomer House of Parmo is turning heads on their ultra-indulgent take on a beloved classic. Specialising in extremely indulgent breaded chicken topped with lashings of béchamel cheese, this is hangover-curing food at its finest.
Making their return to Trinity Kitchen after two years, Wagyu? Lookin' At? will be serving up mouthwatering Yorkshire wagyu burgers and dirty fries loaded with 12-16 hour smoked meats.
Back by popular demand, Shouk! is providing a taste of the Middle East with flavour-packed favourites like crispy falafel, golden halloumi, succulent shawarma, and their iconic loaded fries, piled high with juicy chicken, crunchy crispy onions, and a mix of irresistible toppings.

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.
