The ultimate food card gives one person unlimited free food for an entire year.
If you're looking for a hearty lunch whilst out shopping in Trinity, there really is only one place to head for a crowd-pleaser lunch that even the fussiest of eaters love.
Trinity Kitchen is famed for its unique food traders, including the ever-changing residencies inside the likes of VW camper vans and horse boxes, each converted for a kitchen-use.

One of the staple foodies at Trinity is Rola Wala, who specialise in fresh and healthy Indian-inspired meals. Open since 2014, the restaurant has gained fans like pop star Rita Ora and BBC chef, Rachel Khoo over the years- and now the eatery are giving you the chance to have a celebrity-status when dining in Trinity Kitchen.
Essentially, a black card is a sign of being a 'top fan' of a food or drinks vendor that gives you unlimited free food.
Nandos 'High Five' black card, as seen from the likes of Stormzy and Ed Sheeran started the trend and the concept has since become a national phenomenon.
Rola Wala is becoming the latest restaurant to join the rather exclusive club of black card holders in Leeds and they're giving customers a chance to win one for themselves whilst they dine in-store or at home.

Throughout March, every customer order will be entered into a prize draw: it's as simple as that.
Rola Wala has partnered with Deliveroo to offer the winner unlimited free food for an entire year, plus the chance to be one of the first to try out their new Indian street food menu.
The new launches include delicious flavours like Super-Hot Scorpion chutney, plant-powered 'Thali Triple' bowl, wholemeal naan and a full range of new salads and drinks too.
Of course, all their regulars will be on the menu. Think naan bread rolls packed with chicken tikka, sweet potato saag, meatball rogan josh or even paneer with cookies, Kombucha and poppadums aplenty- and mostly all under 500 calories.
