Out steps Shai Nan Kebab! I have been coming here for Kebabs and take aways for at least 6 years and have never been dissapointed. Sadly, last year it was closed for a spell after a fire destroyed most of the inside yet the new place is bigger and better than ever. Most of the skewered kebabs are kept in the chiller fridge for you to salivate over, as well as a great selection of Pakoras/samosa/bahji's. There is nothing done to any of this food in secret- the kitchen is all open plan as well as the prep area so you can see the cleanliness of the food/utensils/staff/prep areas. The skewered kebabs are cooked fresh to order in the tandor so there is a bit of waiting for your order but hey, who doesn't appreciate a wait when you can get to see the life-cycle of the food you are going to eat. The chapatis/rotis/naans are all freshly rolled and cooked to order so again, no 'kept' food. The menu is quite accomodating for most tastes- kebabs/curries/chicken/burgers/fish/chicken portions and then a new selection of desserts and ice cream shakes. Personally, we usually go for the 'Shai Nan Special kebab' which @ £7.50 offers chicken, lamb,shish.donner and masses of salad all wrapped in a freshly griddled naan with lashings of chilli and yoghurt sauce! Definitely one to open the top button of the jeans for! The Mr and i popped by here Sunday eve and got a Lamb tikka naan and I just had a craving for the donner meat and chips- absolutely spot on for both. Even after a 20 min wait we were still happy. Like i said, there are a lot of Take away shops on this shopping parade yet I've never considered trying any of the others as Shai Nan has never let me down and with the regular staff, open-plan kitchen & prep area and a great reputation I can quite justify driving out of my way to go here as I'm guarenteed to get exactly what I want-without fail!

From the outside, Kebabish Original looks like any other greasy late-night takeaway. And to be…read morehonest, it looks a bit like that on the inside too. Head past the massive flame grill, however, and you'll find a neat little restaurant section towards the back, decked out in a surprisingly classy style. The food here is fantastically varied, from meaty mixed grills and sirloin steaks to curries, burgers and chips, making Kebabish a good stop if you've got a party with mixed tastes, although they may look at you strangely when you first lead them through the unpromising front door. With cheap prices - just two quid for a burger and around a fiver for a main course - they often get busy, so get here early to get a table, or stop by after the pub for a takeaway that's a cut above the usual greasy kebab.

My experience of Kebabish began pretty much in the same way as Aneila's, twas recommended by a…read morePakistani mate who suggested we should all go one afternoon, as she thought the food was really good, she and her sister visited, and they really liked it, and on that premise, we should like it too. Six of us rolled up one lazy Thursday afternoon, and upon reaching the front door, there was an exchange of glances and looking at our dear friend as if she was loco. Stepping through the doors didn't instil any further confidences, but when we were shown our table towards the back of the restaurant, a collective sigh was exhaled. Nice and clean, laid out, smart but not too fancy, we could finally relax and let the smell of the grill hit us. With a mixture of kebabs, curries, salads and sundries on our table it was nice to see what we were glad to have ordered and what we were jealous we hadn't. I had the tandoori, which was lovely, not too dry and really nice in the flavour dept, not too overpowering without being dry and dull. I faired better than some of my eat buddies, as one found her curry to be too greasy, and used a large portion of her naan soaking it up as to detract from the taste. Whilst everything was nice, and there was nothing hideously wrong with the food, it was just nice. Nothing outstanding, but a place I wouldn't object to returning to. I was disappointed at my friend for bigging it up so much, as I said, nice, but not worthy of going out of your way when there are plenty of Indian food eateries in and around the city centre.

I also love Harpos. I was distraught when the one in Headingley closed down. If I'd had more…read morewarning I'd have got a petition going and sent it to Tony Blair (he was prime minister or something at the time). They used to do the most delicious burger with mozzarella and salsa on, and the fries were light and fluffy and perfect. They don't do them at this Harpos (sob) but they do do well tasty pizzas that might look on the small side when you get the box, but then who eats the last slice when you get a normal sized one? Ok, I do, but then I feel bloaty and a bit sick and wish I hadn't. Or I microwave it for my breakfast and then get poorly. So basically, Harpos rocks.

Saffron has that sort of generic restaurant/takeaway appearance that means most people wouldn't…read moregive it a second glance when walking past it, which is a shame as this restaurant offers a good selection of tasty food at reasonable prices, if not the most sophisticated of dining experiences. I've only ever eaten takeaway from here, but the restaurant looks nice enough, if a little bland - the sort of décor that seems commonplace for cheapish Indian joints around Leeds. The food however is surprisingly good; there's a huge choice of vegetarian dishes, which I found appealing, and more unusual items like kasmiri sabzi - mixed vegetables cooked with cream, banana, lychees and pineapple - alongside the more typical masal and daal. They also do a good thali, which seems to be missing from many Indian menus, and some British dishes for the milder palette. Prices are what you'd expect from this sort of venture and very similar to most other Indian eateries in the area, but the food is of a higher quality than your average takeaway grub. If you like your food hot, try the chilli naan - it's delicious, but keep a glass of water close by!

I will admit that I really liked Saffron. We went as a family, and as we were greeted by the staff,…read morewho were all tidily uniformed and ever so nice, there was a generally nice relaxed vibe about the place, which is good points fodder in my opinion. I hate eating out at places that require me to stand on ceremony and sit as if there is a rod up my back. A place you can turn up to in jeans is alright by me. Don't get me wrong the place wasn't anything you could describe as scruffy, in fact, rather the opposite, it was nice and shiny and smelled of food. Bingo!! As it was Sunday, we hit the mega buffet, and mega it was. £8.95 per person, and you could go back as many times as your belly or your shame would allow. With a steady flow of vegetarian friends, I was pleased to scan over the vegetarian options and see there was more than the token vegetable offering. Score! There are the traditional dishes that everyone knows, and there are a few tongue twisters that you might not order if it weren't for the fact you weren't bound to eat it as your only choice. There's a steady stream of starters, mains and sides for the palette's delectation. There are also tasty deserts to tempt you if your belly will allow. There's a fully licensed bar if you fancy the beer and curry combo, or water jugs on hand if you're trying the spicier of options. Under a tenner a head for an all you can eat fest. Bargain.

My favourite Chinese IN THE WORLD is the Golden Dragon in Woodhall Spa, but that's because I never knew another chinese that offered crispy lamb (like duck, but less duck, more lamb) on the menu, and then I found Maxi's Palace Takeaway and my heart skipped a beat (possibly because of all the monosodium glutamate). Pricier than the other Chinese down on that arcade of shops in Roundhay (Canton Flavour? I can't remember. Next to McColls, the Forbuoys that was), but tastier too. And for a fiver they'll deliver. Which is often better because the parking's a nightmare : )

I'd like to share with everyone the way Frydays (Street lane) have treated me as an employee during…read morethe pandemic. I hope this will help anyone who wants to reward businesses who treated their staff properly over the last few weeks, and avoid those who treated their staff badly. I have been working at Frydays averagely 25 hours a week since the beginning of 2020 (my only source of income). I was away on holiday for a week from Monday 16th March, which is when the situation really escalated and businesses began to close. I realised frydays would be closing, so approached the owners on Monday the 23rd asking for them to apply for the government allowance available for me to pay 80%of my wages, they refused with vague answers. I approached them again on Wednesday 25th, asking again for them to apply for the govt assistance for my wages, they responded by telling me that I had been fired from Frydays the previous week (when I was on holiday- this was the FIRST I had heard of this) so they weren't going to apply for it for me. There had been no problems, warnings, or suggestions I would be fired before this, so it was clear they had just invented this becuase they did not want to pay my wages during the time the shop would be shut, even though it would cost literally NOTHING out of their own pocket becuase the government would reimburse them. I have been left with no income, losing out on £160 a week (80% of my wages). I hope everyone will bear these stories in mind when choosing which businesses to support when things go back to normal.
