Eating For Less At<br />
The Weekend<br />
Hungry for new places to eat? We sent Belinda Dias and Saif<br />
Ishafaq to find fresh restaurants in Leeds.<br />
Leeds has a massive range of places to eat, with the presence of<br />
Trinity Kitchen; the food available to students just got a whole lot<br />
tastier.<br />
However, here at Extrovert, we look for places that offer good food<br />
without breaking your bank.<br />
We set ourselves a mission to find the best places for students to eat<br />
nice food that won’t leave you with half of your student loan missing.<br />
We travelled around Leeds City Centre, looking for places where<br />
we think students would enjoy visiting, be it for dinner or just a quick<br />
lunch.<br />
The weekend is the highlight of most students’ week. With work<br />
and the educational side of life over for a blissful two days, we are<br />
determined to make the most out of our weekends.<br />
Most students spend this time by going out with friends, or even<br />
having a lazy two days with Netflix and a pack of Walkers.<br />
However, there is a recurring factor that pops up every weekend, no<br />
matter what kind of activities come up: Food.<br />
Everybody likes to go out and eat, be it for a cheeky nando’s, or for a<br />
swanky meal with work friends.<br />
Thankfully, Leeds offers a huge range of places to eat, but that<br />
seems to be half the problem.<br />
We struggle to find places that offer good and reasonably priced<br />
food amongst the sea of café’s and fast food joints.<br />
The problem with us students is that we’re terrible at managing our<br />
cash.<br />
No denying it, we are horrible with our money. Which is why<br />
finding cheap places is so important to us here at Extrovert. (Some call<br />
us stingy, but hey, I’ve got an extra £50 in the bank each month, what<br />
have YOU got?)<br />
Although we only go into detail about three restaurants, there are<br />
many honourable mentions, which include: Peachy Keens, a buffet<br />
styled restaurant where they cook the meat on your own table! Five<br />
Guys, a brilliant burger place which a hub of student spending. And of<br />
course, Trinity Kitchen, which offers a huge range of food.<br />
Belinda and Saif found many places to eat, but there are three which<br />
stood out to us most, and they are as follows:<br />
Zizzi’s, Rola Wala and Turtle Bay. (More information regarding these<br />
restaurants are shown on the opposite page)<br />
and got the opnions of the customers of the same resturants we went<br />
to.<br />
“What I enjoy most about Rola<br />
Wala is that it is all less than 500<br />
calories so it’s all very healthy for<br />
you and very quick to get.”<br />
Caitlin, 18, Leeds.<br />
“Zizzi’s provide a classy and<br />
affordable experience with<br />
wonderful service. A massive<br />
variety to choose from but I very<br />
much enjoyed the salmon and<br />
would definitely recommend it”<br />
Alice, 23, Leeds.<br />
“Very fun and vibrant in colour<br />
and in taste. Turtle Bay has a<br />
wonderful atmosphere and great<br />
music. A place you wouldn’t really<br />
get bored of.”<br />
Jason, 20, Leeds.<br />
The opinion of the public is massively important to us, so we went out
