“Malmaison Leeds strikes me as a real find: a comfortable spot in the city center, with staff that genuinely seem to care. I'm particularly drawn to the restaurant, from what I've read; apparently, the chef is doing something special. It sounds like a place where even a demanding palate might be genuinely impressed.”
