HOME: modern fine dining in Leeds
HOME, which hit the Leeds restaurant scene at full throttle back in August, is the work of Liz Cottam (semi-finalist on last year's Masterchef) and Mark Owens (former head chef at The Box Tree in Ilkley). Serving up ten-course tasting menus throughout the week, and a six-course menu on Sundays (read: pork & apple / Yorkshire puddings / horseradish mousse / onion chutney...), HOME seeks to reconstruct British fine dining in a modern, relaxed environment.
Highlights:
Wild mushrooms, thyme, mushroom ketchup & confit yolk
Poached lemon sole, celeriac & potted shrimps
The menu gives a new meaning to the word 'seasonal' - it changes every month - so each visit should be a completely new experience for the diner. Unless, of course, you get home-sick...
Here are some shots of October's menu, with a few others thrown in.
