A new all-you-can-eat Brazilian steakhouse is coming to Yorkshire with bottomless meat and cheese
Think fifteen different types of meat, slow-roasted vegetables, cheese and a massive salad bar all for a fixed priced - plus free cocktails on the opening night
A new all-you-can-eat Brazilian steakhouse is opening in Yorkshire this week. offering diners fifteen different choices of unlimited succulent meats for a set price.
And it's not just meat either - although there certainly is a lot of that at the new restaurant in Hull.
Elsewhere on the menu, which mixes Brazilian and Argentinian cooking styles, diners will also find tangy cheeses and fresh vegetables - all slow-cooked over open flames in the authentic Rodizio manner.
Even better, everything is offered for a set price - with the full rodizio lunch menu available from £16.95 and the evening menu priced from £29.95.
There will be up to fifteen meats available at any one time / Image: Beleza Kingswood.The artist's vision for the Brazilian restaurant suggests there will be an interior as bright and bold as the colourful menu. / Image: Beleza Kingswood.
Beleza’s heart is its grill, and the restaurant operates an authentic all-you-can-eat style of service typical of South American dining.
As part of this, Beleza Rodizio staff will keep appearing at your table with dishes until you're so full you couldn't possibly muster anymore.
The idea is that customers have complete control over the food: you choose exactly which vegetables, meats, and cheeses you want to get stuck into and can eat as much (or as little) as you like.
The lunch menu includes the likes of Picanha (a cap of rump and Brazilian speciality), Alcatra (a top sirloin cut of rump), Liguiça (a classic Brazilian sausage), Cordeiro (tender lamb with tangy mint) and loads more.

The dinner menu, meanwhile, serves finer cuts of steak including Bife Ancho (rib eye), Filét-Mignon and tender sirloin Contra Filé.
As for vegetarians and vegans, you can choose from an abundance of mouth-watering salads, vegetables, cheeses, potatoes, many of which can be self-served from the impressive all-you-can-eat salad bar.
Embodying the carnival spirit of the streets of Rio, cocktails aplenty are available, as well as ten different types of rum.
Cocktails will be free on the opening night. / Image: Beleza Kingswood.
Taste the rich flavours of a Caipirinha, Brazil's national cocktail with cachaça, lime and sugar, or opt for Beleza's reimagined variations - made with either mango, passionfruit, strawberry or raspberry - before grabbing a tropical midori splice or a Baileys and banana colada.
Opening tomorrow, Thursday 16 December, Brazilian steakhouse Beleza Rodizio will make its debut at Hull's Kingswood Leisure Park with bottomless meats, live entertainment and a free cocktail on arrival to celebrate its launch.
Book your place at the table to avoid disappointment as we imagine this will be an opening night to remember.
Leeds health nuts assemble, because acai bowls and superfood smoothies are coming to a city near you.
Incase you've been living under a rock for the past year or so, you may not be clued up on the whole acai bowl trend that has been sweeping up the nation.
Acai is a super berry grown and harvested in the Amazon rainforest, and not only is it absolutely delicious but it has a myriad of health benefits.
Acai and the Tribe first opened four years ago in Manchester, and ever since then it's only gone from strength to strength opening up three other locations across the country.

Next stop? Leeds. And we couldn't be happier about it.
So, what can we expect from this aesthetically-pleasing and ultra trendy female-owned business? Well, loaded acai bowls that look almost too good to eat, superfood smoothies, coffees, matcha and savoury options like avocado toast.
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, Acai and the Tribe said: "You asked, we listened. LEEDS… your new lifestyle arrives soon."
They will be opening on 88 Vicar Lane as part of the Vicar Lane regeneration scheme, which has already scene some great new restaurants being announced such as Sticks'n'Sushi and Dishoom.
It seems like this part of town is suddenly going to be the place to be, and we're very happy to see it.
We'll keep you updated with opening dates as and when we know more but for now, you can find out more about Acai and the Tribe here.
Leeds has been crowned the best city in the UK for foodies outside of London
Clementine Hall
It's fantastic news for our city as Leeds has been crowned one of the best cities in the UK for foodies.
It's news that we've been pretty certain of for some time, but it's still nice to be recognised isn't it?
It comes from a new study carried out by credit card brand Aqua who analysed 30 major UK cities across a range of dining and social media metrics, including cuisine variety, restaurant availability, meal affordability, Michelin recognition and TikTok hashtag volumes.
Coming in at number on was, of course, London.

With 47 cuisines, 22.5 restaurants per 10,000 residents and 81 Michelin-starred establishments, the capital unsurprisingly continues to dominate the UK’s culinary scene.
But in at number two was our glorious city of Leeds, supported by the highest restaurant density in the study, with 38.5 establishments per 10,000 people, and strong affordability compared with cities in the south.

We will absolutely take that.
Other northern spots to feature on the list include Sheffield and Bradford in sixth and eighth place.
The top ten UK cities for foodies are:
London
Leeds
Nottingham
Edinburgh
Wolverhampton / Leicester
Sheffield
Birmingham / Glasgow
Bradford / Swansea
Preston
Milton Keynes
Here in Leeds we've got so many fabulous food spots, with new openings cropping up every month it's hard to keep track.
From the multi award-winning Bavette Bistro in Horsforth to the highly acclaimed indie Bundobust that started off in Leeds - you certainly won't find yourself hungry or at a loss for somewhere to eat here.
