Leeds is about to get a whole lot fluffier and it's all thanks to our favourite cheesy team.
It's no surprise that we're The Cheesy Living Co.'s biggest fans.
Whatever they do, and whatever they turn their attention to, turns to absolute gold dust. And we're sure this new venture will be no different.
We've only just gotten over the news that they're opening up a new Cheesy over in Pudsey, but now they're opening up another site in Leeds and it's going to be a little bit different - but still as brilliant, obviously.

Introducing Fold, a focacceria and bakery that will be providing all the bakes for their numerous sites across the city (which will equal to three once their new spot in Pudsey opens its doors).
And in the future welcoming punters in for fluffy focaccia bakes, coffee and all that good stuff.
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, the team said: "We picked up the keys to our new unit today & although there’s loads to do before we’re open for business, here’s a little taste of whats to come...
"@foldfocacceria will be our new much bigger & better ‘in-house’ bakery for all of the bread, bagels & sweet treats that we use / sell across our sites.
"Longer term, we want to open up to the public for grab & go sarnies, coffee & whatever other delicious things our bakery team are making that day + maybe even offer some wholesale products.
"We’re able to do this because people have never stopped supporting us, which is why we feel it’s our duty to try to keep improving & be the best we possibly can.
"It’s still just us, as proudly independent as ever - so to say this is a dream come true would be pretty damn accurate x"
We're absolutely chuffed for them and can't wait to follow along the journey of Fold, we're sure it's going to be completely epic.

Now you're talking our language.
Souvlaki Corner told The Hoot: "We’re excited to confirm that Souvlaki Corner will be opening a new site in Morley, Leeds. Our targeted opening is in around four weeks, although we don’t have an exact opening date yet and will confirm this closer to the launch.
"One of the highlights of the new restaurant will be a traditional Greek spit where we will cook whole lamb in the proper Greek way. It will be cooked over charcoal to give the authentic Greek flavour that people would experience in Greece.

"Our chefs are Greek, bringing authentic knowledge and experience from Greece. The interior design will also reflect the style of the Greek islands, so when people visit they will feel like they are stepping into a little part of Greece."
They continued: "Souvlaki Corner was created to bring authentic Greek street food to Leeds, focusing on freshly grilled souvlaki, gyros, and traditional flavours served quickly and affordably. Since launching our first location, the response from customers has been fantastic, and Morley felt like the natural next step as we continue to grow."
