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.

Number 10 North is officially ‘open for business’ and here’s why it’s so important for Yorkshire
Number 10 North has officially 'opened for business' this week, and Andy Burnham has now explained his key reasons for launching it.
You may remember that earlier last month, Andy Burnham revealed he had intentions to create a Number 10 North if he was to become Prime Minister, with the new base expected to be a 'dominant driver of the UK's economy' once it was officially up and running... and now, fast forward to today, Number 10 North is officially 'open for business'.
Operating from Heron House in Manchester city centre, as previously reported on by The Manc, Number 10 North will be the Government’s new 'situation room for growth'.
It also brings the 'levers' of local economic growth and devolution together under one roof for the first time ever.
With the Prime Minister expected to work from Number 10 North each week, so that decisions about the country’s economic future will no longer exclusively be made in Westminster, and with other ministers also working from there on a regular basis, the Government says the move underlines its determination to 'do things differently'.

Now that Number 10 North has officially opened, Andy Burnham has explained why this move is so important for Yorkshire and the north as a whole.
"For 40 years, power and resources have been sucked into the centre, and too many communities have felt forgotten, without the attention and investment they deserve," explained Andy Burnham.
"Number 10 North will change that by putting more power into every postcode across the entire country. It will be the situation room for making Britain better, the place we use to get power out of Westminster, into the hands of people at a local level, so that they can turn things around.
"The days of Whitehall resisting devolution are over, for good."

Pints of Knowledge, Callum Campbell’s fastest-growing event, is coming to Leeds city centre this summer
Clementine Hall
The pub night that's packing out venues across the UK is coming to Leeds.
Let us introduce you to Pints of Knowledge, a phenomenon founded by Callum Campbell that has built a social media following of more than 160,000 people.
This is different to your average night out, it's a chance to meet new people and spark interesting conversation all in the relaxing surroundings of a pub.
The event has attracted thousands to its unique mix of expert talks, conversation and community in pubs across the UK.

And if you're looking to get in on the action then you're in luck, because Pints of Knowledge is arriving at The Wardrobe on Sunday 9 August.
So, what can you expect? From landmark legal history and the hidden pressures behind big systems to the evolving language of gaslighting and radical cinema, Sunday's Leeds programme will demonstrate exactly why Pints of Knowledge has struck such a chord with audiences across the UK.
Founder Callum Campbell, who has spent more than a decade producing live events across Britain, said bringing the concept to Leeds was the natural next step - and we're so happy he thought so.

He said: "I've always wanted to bring Pints of Knowledge to more cities across England, and Leeds has such a strong appetite for ideas and conversation. Watching this grow has been amazing, and I can't wait to bring it here.
"As more people look for experiences beyond a traditional night out, Pints of Knowledge offers something different: expert speakers, thought-provoking conversations and the chance to meet new people, all in the relaxed surroundings of a pub.
"People still love going to the pub, but they're looking for more from the experience. Pints of Knowledge is about hearing incredible stories, asking questions, meeting interesting people and leaving having learned something new."

The Pints of Knowledge programme at The Wardrobe will look like this:
12pm - Human rights lawyer Mahnoor Omer presents '10 Legal Cases that Changed History'.
2pm - Georgina Shute asks 'Why billion-pound systems are built by people who can't finish their to-do lists'.
4pm - Isobel Logan explores 'Gaslighting: The Evolution of a Concept Across Art, Relationships and Politics'.
6pm - Angelos Koutsourakis will examine 'Third Cinema, The Global South & Climate Change'.
Campbell added: "One hour you can be unpacking landmark legal cases, the next you're hearing about the psychology behind gaslighting, before finishing the day exploring cinema and climate change. That's what makes Pints of Knowledge different.
"This is just the beginning. We've seen an incredible response across the UK, and we're excited to build on that by bringing Pints of Knowledge to more cities across the country.”
Pints of Knowledge takes place at The Wardrobe in Leeds on Sunday 9 August, and you can get your tickets here.
