Toby Carvery restaurants are making way for the a Festive Super Pig this year: a giant pigs in blankets roll and it tastes as delicious as it sounds.
Christmas foods are just getting bigger and better each year.
Well, at least at Toby Carvery they are.
What was once a single sausage, has been reborn as a footlong meat to create a giant pigs in blankets dish that is perfect for the festive season.
On the menu, we're talking about The Festive Super Pig: a giant pig in a blanket stuffed inside a warm ciabatta roll with cranberry sauce, stuffing and served with a choice of roast potatoes or house salad.

Of course, if you can't bare the thought of letting your pigs in blankets take front and centre of your Christmas dinner roast, you can always just add them to your usual Toby Carvery orcer instead.
Their Christmas menu is all about 'going the extra mile' for customers, so the team at Toby's wanted to create a showstopper for their main dish.
Taking inspiration from the traditional pigs in blankets that, like the green Quality Street, are always first to go, the team designed a mammoth version of the original.
With 750,000 flying out the oven and into the stomachs of hungry carvery-eaters, this addition seems like an appropriate and soon-to-be popular addition to the menu.

The Festive Super Pig will be available from Wednesday 17 November at Toby Carvery restaurants across England.
There are three main Toby Carvery locations in Leeds: one in Oulton, another in Morley and in North Leeds, the Chapel Allerton venue is open for business.
Due to the busy nature of the restaurants, we recommend booking online to confirm your seat in advance.
"After years of late nights, strong cocktails, and incredible stories; The Maven will close its doors"
It's a sad day for the Leeds night life scene, as a beloved speakeasy bar has today announced that it will be closing its doors for good.
The Maven has been a firm favourite for many years with those looking to enjoy some experimental and expertly made cocktails.
Hidden behind an unassuming door at the top of Call Lane, it was a great spot to visit if you were looking for something that little bit special.
Announcing the news to their social media, The Maven said: "From the bottom of our hearts we thank you for being our guests over the years and promise that until then, we'll do our best to give you the best nights out on Call Lane."
Luxury Leeds steakhouse to undergo huge £1.2 million renovation
Clementine Hall
Leeds restaurant The Cut & Craft has announced further expansion plans for the spring.
Swanky all-day dining restaurant and bar, The Cut & Craft, is expanding its popular Leeds site, investing a whopping £1.2 million to create a new adjoining elegant bar, lounge and private spaces.
Located within the former historic Collinson’s Cafe, the renovation will transform the former neighbouring Paul Smith store, to extend the existing brand offering.
The extension will celebrate the original beauty of the space, whilst acknowledging the legacy of Wallace Hartley - a talented musician who played at Collinson’s Cafe in the early 1900s before his role as bandleader on Titanic during its maiden voyage.

The Grade II-listed building’s features including its iconic glass dome, stained glass and circular central bar will remain, with the addition of two beautifully designed private dining rooms.
The extension is due for competition this spring and will transform the existing venue into a space with seating for an impressive 370 covers.
Oscar Akgul, CEO at The Cut & Craft said: “Planning for this new chapter began within the first year of opening. By year two, it was clear that we required additional space to serve the city’s appetite for The Cut & Craft’s signature hospitality.

“The brand’s deep affinity with the Victoria Quarter and the heritage of the building played an essential role in the decision to grow here.
“We want to thank our regular guests and everyone who has joined us at The Cut & Craft Leeds since opening and we look forward to entering this exciting new chapter with you all.”
