The hire pack, but some potentially more reasonable prices.

Nugget

I live in Leeds and one of the city's best restaurants is Haleys (which is also an hotel).

http://www.haleys.co.uk/restaurant/main_course.html

£35 per head (3 courses) though so it depends on what sort of price you want to spend. Harvey Nicholls will be around that sort of price....

Re: Any good restaurants?

i would agree with previous posters, head to a restaurant in the light if you are too cheap to treat her to a meal at the hotel...

or you could always go to McD's

*has been for many meals in leeds*

Of course - I'll count myself as lucky if I manage to pull this off without letting it slip what I'm doing .

As long as she enjoys it, that'll do for me

Re: Any good restaurants?

I'm hoping to use the restaurant in the hotel but I'm only poor, and I think it'd be a bit naughty borrowing some pennies from her for her birthday present .

Fingers crossed, everything will be fine but I think it's good to have some other places on standby just in case.

Hmmm - re-reading that post, I think most of them actually count as single entendres

Nah, I haven't got a computer at home so she won't be able to see (helps me keep it a secret )

Re: Any good restaurants?

Better make this a light meal, too much food and wine in a warm intimate setting can lead to food coma. You won't get lucky then. If that happens the best move is breakfast in bed.

Re: Any good restaurants?

There's a nice little Italian place at Huddersfield, but that's a bit far Most of the best places in Leeds are on the outskirts. There's the Vic at the back of the Town Hall for decent pub food. Also Nash's for quality fish n chips. I had a meal in the Light once - can't remember where. Didn't taste too good.

Re: Any good restaurants?

I've just had an e-mail from Nugget, he said his weekend away treat for his girlfriend's birthday went extremely well & he is now, officially, the best boyfriend in the world.

He is sorting out his login from his new place of work & hopes to be back on the forum soon. In the meantime he asked me to convey his gratitude to everone who posted suggestions in this thread - so thanks everyone
