In the days where a bottomless brunch might set you back the best part of forty quid, it's refreshing to see an unlimited foodie offering that focuses on quality without bringing sky-high prices to the table.
And in what now appears to be a monthly special of unlimited cheeses on offer, this is hopefully one of many all-you-can-eat cheese nights to come for Leeds this year.
Combining eight different variations of cheddars, reds, whites and blues, Homage2Fromage is joining forces with to bring Leeds a night that we could only dream of.
Unlimited cheese will be served for a whopping two and a half hours, and there's absolutely no limit on how many crumbly bits, hard or soft cheeses you reach for.

The next event is on Thursday 13 April 2023, with a night celebrating all things Italian.
"Italy - the originator of so much amazing cheese - from the big, hard ones, to squishy, sultry ones, delicious blues, gentle subtle flavours and textures. So many contrasts, such quality, and the source of some of the world's greatest cheese!"
"All you can eat! 8 Cheeses - plus crackers, chutney and all the trimmings... There will be score sheets and tasting notes..."
"With a short presentation to talk you through the cheese you have been eating – this is an amazing way to find out more about lovely Italian cheese!"
Accompanied by a selection of breads, chutneys, fruits and crackers, there truly will be everything needed for a truly cheese occasion.
This isn't a snobby cheese night for those that know the difference between a quartz cheese and a brie, it's all about bringing people together to have a sensory and social experience that foods like cheese can offer.
Homage2Fromage is a Leeds-born company that was born out of a random conversation on Twitter in 2011 by owners Nick and Vickie. The two created what is now known as Homage2Fromage in our own city before expanding to the likes of Sheffield, Harrogate, Manchester and now you'll even find them in the capital too.
And so if the wealth of cheese isn't enough to speak to your stomach, perhaps the temptation of a free drink on arrival and the opportunity to meet like-minded foodies will have you logging onto the Homage2Fromage website to grab your ticket.
Tickets cost £20 each and include unlimited access to the cheese buffet from Homage2Fromage and can be found here.

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.
Inside FaceGym – Leeds’ newest facial fitness studio loved by celebrities
Clementine Hall
We hope you're ready for your workout, because FaceGym has landed in Leeds.
You may be wondering...what on earth is Facegym? And to be fair, you've got a point.
FaceGym, as they themselves describe it, a 'non-invasive fitness studio concept for the face' using high-intensity facial massage, hand manipulation, and electrical muscle stimulation technology to tone, lift, and sculpt the face without surgery.
Sounds pretty fancy if you ask us, and it feels just as fancy from the moment you step through the door.

Unsurprisingly, it's loved by celebrities worldwide who are looking to get snatched and ditch their gua sha.
Currently occupying five standalone stores in London, one in Cambridge as well as a pop-up in Space NK in Selfridges Manchester, FaceGym will be opening this Friday 18 September inside the coveted Victoria Gate, taking over a 1,772 square foot studio.

The space really does look like a gym, ditching the standard beauty salon aesthetic for an American-style gym interior complete with the iconic red FaceGym balls all over the place.
A signature sculpt costs £110 for a 45 minute treatment, so it's definitely a treat if you're looking to have skin that can reflect the sun and cheekbones for days.

Angelo Castello, chief executive at Facegym, said: “We’re incredibly excited to bring Facegym to Leeds and to open in the beautiful Victoria Gate. The city has a thriving beauty, wellness, and retail scene, making it the perfect location for our next studio.
“We’ve seen growing demand from customers across Yorkshire, and we can’t wait to introduce even more people to the benefits of facial fitness.”
