All the meat! The…read morefood scene has drastically improved in Leeds since I moved to London. When I was a student, we had a choice between a chicken kebab from Lucky's or a pizza from Gangsters, (where the chicken tasted like tuna). Nowadays students in Headingley are spoilt for choice for awesome food, the best of which comes from Red's True Barbecue. After being disappointed at the prospect of an Oak BBQ burger or tandoori regret from Tariq's, I lumped off to Red's for a healthy portion of sticky fingers and meat sweats! I feasted on succulent baby back ribs with a pair of chicken wings that terrified me at the thought of how big chickens can actually get, both choices were excellent. I also ordered some burnt ends, some of which were disappointingly tepid in temperature but tasty nevertheless, and a brownie milkshake that was decidedly average. It tasted ok, sure, but at £5 it needs to blow my mind like an Oreo shake from Byron, and sadly it didn't come even close to stacking up. The service was very friendly and attentive, and the food was good. I look forward to visiting the one that opens in London very soon.

The burgers were good but not great...it was meh, better than what would get in mcdonalds or burger king and they should be with the price they had it. I couldn't stop feeling though that i over payed because of the brand instead of the product. I mean it was a burger, chips and a drink served in a paper bag for almost £11.

(Okay, maybe It Bar and others tried it first, but I'm not sure I rate 'em.) Then Meat Liquor, Byron, Almost Famous, and Five Guys. Did I miss anyone? Who cares. Step aside folks -- get thee to Get Baked. I've tried the delivery version of these guys recently (and again -- I need to update) and only recently realised that they had just opened up a restaurant. I often walk into town, so I'd seen something going on inside what used to be The Quilted Llama, then soon realised that Get Baked (mrniceguys) were behind this venture too. Funny that I only just wrote in the other review that these guys needed a restaurant... I liked the tongue in cheek nod to Five Guys on their signage ("High Five Guys") and the l337 speak claiming they'd "run out of l3773r5". Before you even enter, neon words promise you "free food tomorrow". It may be huge, looming, and illuminati-esque (and clearly, it's like that on purpose -- the restaurant is in a church, for goodness' sake) but I love the huge neon signage in the window too. The comic print style, black and white wall paper, featuring characters like Felix the cat, Heisenberg, and Hannibal, is cool enough -- although my friend felt it was reminiscent of Meat Liquor's do up. (I can see that.) My absolute favourite bit is the UV paint splattered hallway to the loos, though. It feels really nineties and fits in well, with yet more cool neon signs dotted about. Essentially, I dig the vibe of the place. The only thing that feels jarring is to eat in a room with such a high ceiling, and since the music is so loud and the lighting is so low, it really feels like it should become a night club once the foodening has happened. In fact, I wish it would -- I could burn off the heavenly guilt and get my rave on in an actually well-converted church. (Did you notice that all other church-come-nightclubs are seriously tacky?) And when I say the music was loud, I mean we actually couldn't hear each other -- or the waiters/waitresses -- at one point. It seemed like they recognised this, as it did go up and down before settling on a balane. I couldn't complain about the playlist though; we shazamed about five songs during our visit. Now, let's get to the real talk: burgers. Oh shiiiiiiiit. I want to say that the reason I ceased to talk to my friend was because I couldn't hear him, but once that chicken burger arrived, it was business time. (I mean, I couldn't hear him, but I didn't care, because burger.) I can't remember the name of my choice -- the chicken burger that's a number which is probably a significant joke I'm not quite geeky enough to get? They all have clever names of some kind. Whatever -- it had a big hunk of perfectly fried chicken, in some other-wordly batter, soaked in maple syrup, with American-style crispy bacon. You bet your ass they put it in a brioche bun. Get in my face and don't interrupt me 'til I'm done. Not a word. The chips were great -- I love the seasoning -- and if you're unafeared of calories, do the nacho cheese. I thought it was worth it. Gentlemen's Wit, a Camden brewery beer, was a solid accompaniment and not too strong. Oddly, if you think flavours and food can be gendered, I would say it's actually a bit 'girly', what with the lemon and bergamot. Maybe CB are being ironic somehow? Whatever. I do have to say, though -- lads: You can't be having the Full Girlfriend Experience on your menu and leave nothing for us ladies. Full Boyfriend Experience please! I like bantz as much as the next lass :) Also -- does anyone remember the Leeds band Pigzipper? They're on the menu too! I dig the weird, creepy mannequin man who gives you an egg if you feed him money. All the staff were great. I wish I'd gotten names, as two of the lads were just awesome; kudos to you dancing guy by the desk -- you're amazing. I like a place where the staff clearly have fun. Plenty of banter. Let's go for the roundup: If you're after a really fantastic, American-style burger, I think these guys are the one. I really, really loved the food -- it's all-out, carb-tastic, screw-the-diet delicious. The drinks range was grand, although I didn't even get to the cocktails that time -- can't speak for the soft drinks since I was on the beers that night. The staff are loads of fun. The prices are fine -- it was about £40 for two burgers, two chips, and seven or so beers. I would prefer the music to be less intrusive, but I dig the playlist. I do also wish it became a bar after 11pm or something. Basically, I'll definitely be coming back. Go on in and fill your face.

Warning: This review contains superlatives…read more I crave moments like this. I unwrapped my burger package with more excitement than a toddler at Christmas; the folded paper wrapping that encases your burger is a delightful hint to the 'true American' style experience you are about to receive. It had been freshly cooked in just the right amount of time to build up my anticipation, but not so much that it began to wane. The mantra in my head, as I grabbed it with both hands, "Don't be disappointing. Don't be disappointing." Perhaps I'm a little bit obsessive when it comes to meat patties. And who can blame me? Leeds has many pretenders to the throne, and I don't think it's melodramatic to say that there may be fewer more disheartening moments than forcing down a burger-dud. Especially when some charge you in excess of a tenner for it. (That's like getting a a face-slap and being asked to say thank you.) Perhaps I am obsessive about this. But, I digress. This. Oh, this. This, friends, is the promised land. Flavour country. Your Huckleberry. Etc. Don't be size-ist -- we all know it's about what you do with it that counts. And what Patty Smith does with hers, no one in Leeds can top. She offers you the softest, squidgiest buns; this beautiful twin of breads perfectly holds everything in place, and soaks the goodness without becoming too soggy. It also happens to taste marvellous and manages not to intrude on the overall experience. You know exactly what I mean. The bun is not stodgy. She offers some amazing new molecular level of cheese that I've not experienced before -- how was it both liquid and solid? And how was that exactly what I wanted, and how did she know? I would do the smokey, sweet, superb sauce an arrest-worthy injustice if I dared try to explain it. Really. She also offers you the juiciest patty known to Yorkshire; she must divulge her secrets to me. It is not so rare that you can see the grass the cows frolicked on, but -- cripes -- it's juicy-good. It's slightly pink, and it is perfect. Devouring with abandon is not an ignoble thing: to eat her patty is to smother your face in delicious burger nectar. Indulge in that dirty juice. It is holier than you, and you are lucky to experience it. You damned hipster. Forget your beard, forget your 'retro' '90s lipstick, forget being scene/seen for a second. (Patty lives in the Belgrave, don't 'cha know.) Just bloody destroy that thing. Get it in you. *Okay, it's just a burger. But I really did get excited.

After having a recommendation of the kebabs here, I went for a Saturday night drunken kebab and…read morethought I'd try it out. I ordered through Just Eat, and was a little unimpressed with the food arriving about 10/15 minutes later than it said it would, especially when the times given on Just Eat tend to be very generous and I'm used to it arriving before the stated time. Anyway, once it was delivered by a very friendly man, I cracked it open and was immediately impressed. I'd gone for the mixed grill kebab on naan, and the meat looked fantastic. It came with 2 little tubs of sauces too - one was a tasty chilli sauce and the other tasted like a raita that wasn't too intense. So I threw them both all over the kebab! This turned out to be a good move, and the combo worked brilliantly. With kebabs in general the sauce is all important for me, so I was already a fan once I'd tasted that! The meat was excellent too - cooked perfectly and was very tasty. The only bad point here was that one of the pieces had a massive bone in it which was pretty annoying, and I don't know if this was intentional or an accident. Either way, as annoying as it was it didn't spoil everything. Overall then it was definitely a 4* kebab, and I will be dipping in again at some point in the near future.
