New burger house using ‘world’s hottest chilli’ opens in Leeds
Boasting a heat of up to 2.4 million Scoville Heat Units, the Carolina reaper pepper is just as ferocious as it is tasty - and it's already causing quite the stir at this new burger joint
A new burger house serving burgers made with the 'world's hottest chilli' has opened in Leeds and some people are very excited about it.
From a 24k gold burger and a ten patty high challenge burger to its might Carolina reaper burgers, YOH Burgers has some insane-looking specials.
For those who want to go all-in on the chilli hype, there are two options: chicken and beef, both billed as using the 'world's hottest chilli'.

Encased within a purply pink beetroot bun, tuck into 6oz of fresh YOH Black Angus Beef or a peri chicken fillet layered with cheese, nachos, lettuce, onions and YOH's legendary Reaper sauce.
That said, if you're not a big fan of heat there's still loads on the menu for you here.
Other impressive-looking burger options (and there are a lot) include a 24K gold-topped black wagyu beef burger and a 10x challenge burger - comprised of ten 3 oz patties, cheese, lettuce, and YOH's house burger sauce.

Alternatively, you can opt to build your own burger - choosing from up to four different styles of bun (glazed or seeded brioche, black charcoal and red beetroot), four proteins, and a seemingly unlimited number of sauces and extras.
The menu is so huge, in fact, you can also build your own pizzas, nachos, wraps, rice, salad, fries and noodle boxes - we genuinely defy anyone to say they can't find something to eat here.
Using super-premium cuts of beef and top-grade chicken, this is the fifth site for YOH burgers which already has an established presence in Manchester, Sheffield, Rotherham and Wakefield.

Tried and trusted Sheffield indie spot Baker's Yard is expanding its Kelham Island site and potentially dropping its "micro-bakery" title.
Opening just three years ago, Baker's Yard has become a sweet-treat staple in its Sheffield neighbourhood, Kelham Island, so much so, the owners have taken to social media to announce some very big plans.
Known for keeping Kelham Island visitors satisfied with their key lime pie and cheesecakes to loaves of bread and freshly baked pastries, now Baker's Yard is expected to continue doing so on a larger scale.
After putting out a call-out post earlier this month to recruit more front of house team members, the bakery waited just one more week before sharing its latest news.
What was once a "micro-bakery" is now about to undergo a particularly large transformation, as revealed in a new announcement via social media by the Baker's Yard team: "Our bakery is growing, into next door!"
Explaining this decision in further detail, the Kelham Island hotspot has said: "You can expect a greater variety of bakes, breads, pastries and cakes, including bespoke celebration and wedding cakes".
Already known for their bakery and coffee shop-hybrid, as well as the bespoke cake services they offer too, now Baker's Yard are covering all bases with an all-new venture.
Life just got a whole lot sweeter, as you'll be able to get your Baker's Yard fix all-day-long with the arrival of a restaurant, with the team promising, "Baker's Yard Bistro, a French inspired neighbourhood eatery" later down the line.
This year has been nothing but positive for this independent Sheffield business, as back in March Baker's Yard found itself included in The Good Food Guide's Top 50 Bakeries in the UK - Huge congrats.

They've currently got one site in Manchester city centre with one more almost ready to open its doors, and now they're making their way across the Pennines and opening their first Yorkshire cafe right here in Leeds. Aren't we lucky.
Announcing the exciting news to Instagram, Bruncho said: "We’ve been keeping a HUGE SECRET, but now it’s finally time to share… LEEDS CITY CENTRE WE’RE COMING FOR YOU!!

With queues constantly forming at their cafe in Deansgate, Manchester - we're sure that their weird and wonderful creations will go down just as well here in Leeds.
It's not the first brunch spot to make their way over, with Federal opening on Boar Lane earlier this year that has been packed out ever since.
We'll of course keep you in the loop with opening dates as and when we find out but for now, Bruncho we can't wait to welcome you to our city.
