A taste of the Med at Leo’z

Leo has been running the popular restaurant of his name (with a z) Leo’z on Bridlington’s Promenade for over 20 years. Originally from a small village in Turkey, his passion for his local Turkish cuisine and other Mediterranean influences such as Italian and Greek is apparent when you glance at the extensive menu. With over 40 years of culinary experience, Leo has built up a dedicated team here in Brid, including his son Ozan who takes an active part in the running of the business. You can clearly see their passion and dedication to delivering great food to the residents…

Afternoon Tea on the Yorkshire Coast

There is nothing quite so British as Afternoon Tea. It immediately conjures an image of little bite-sized sandwiches, a selection of cakes and scones stacked temptingly on a three-tier tea stand alongside a pot of Earl Grey tea with delicate fine china. In my mind, this is served on a beautiful green lawn while dressed in floaty white clothes and a fabulous sun hat - but maybe that's just me? 🤔 It is said that the tradition originates from the 1840s and is attributed to Anna Maria Russell, Duchess of Bedford. She came up with the concept because her husband…

Thai (Yorkshire) Crab Cakes

This might be a Thai recipe but as we're generally using Yorkshire Crab I'm adding it to the title. I've had this recipe on a scrap of paper for years - its got splats all-over it from the many times I've used it. I think it originally came from Nigel Slater so I suppose I should give him a mention. What I love about this is how simple it is - it's one of those 'bung everything in a blender together and whiz' recipes - you can't go wrong as long as you are using good quality fresh ingredients. You…

Redcliffe Farm – from Eggs to Hampers (and a bit more besides)

I'd be really surprised if there is anyone in the general area that hasn't heard of Redcliffe Farm. They have built a really solid reputation since they first established the shop in 2007 as THE go-to farm shop for quality, locally sourced fresh ingredients. The Cafe, is open all year round 7 days a week - open from 9am serves a perfect Eggs Benedict (not surprising given their origins - more later) but they are also renowned for a pretty scrummy Steak Pie too. Most of the favourites found in the cafe can also be found in the shop to…

The Cat’s Pyjamas

Like me, I wonder if you've walked past the Tramway building on the corner of St Nicholas Cliff, thinking of it as the old-style cafe it was many years ago. If so, I encourage you to stop and take another look. The new Cat's Pyjamas has most definitely had a make-over. But be assured, it still has a lovely quirky vintage feel to it but with some fresh additions to decor and lighting. The main change, however, is in the menu and drinks offer. This is not just a place to stop for tea and cake - though this is…
