Celebrity chef Rick Stein has just shouted about one of Leeds’ best restaurants live on BBC Breakfast.

The legendary TV and foodie personality appeared on telly this morning to talk about his latest series, Rick Stein’s Food Stories – and made sure to give our very own Bundobust a big shout-out.

In the series, he travels the length and breadth of the UK visiting local restaurants and getting to know the best producers around the British Isles.

And the 77-year-old chef and presenter made sure to spread the word of Bundobust while he was chatting to Charlie Stayt and Nina Warhurst.

Rick Stein said: “One other place in Leeds actually, a place called Bundobust, where they’re serve craft beer and vegetarian Gujarati Indian food.

“I particularly like that place because it’s not like the sort of old-fashioned Indian restaurants with flock wallpaper and all that.

“It’s really trendy and a bit sort of…”

At this point Nina jumps in to help him with a suggestion of ‘Hipster?’

“Hipster is exactly the word!” Rick said. “It’s a word I don’t use much at my age.”

Bundobust has quickly spotted its star turn on BBC Breakfast (probably helped by hundreds of us sliding into their DMs).

Bundobust shared a clip of Rick Stein and wrote: “Catching hipster allegations on BBC Breakfast!! Almost spat out our chai. (It’s Rick though, we’ll allow it)”

The Indian restaurant opened a decade ago on Mill Hill in Leeds and its success has grown and grown, now also having two restaurants (and a brewery) in Manchester as well as a spot in Liverpool.

It’s a firm favourite for us here at The Hoot – love you forever Bundo.
