A Taster of Yorkshire’s Tasting Menus

It’s no secret that we think Yorkshire’s food and drink excellence puts it firmly on the map amongst the best in the world. We are spoilt for choice; incredible local produce, excellent chefs and top-class service – a recipe for success.

One way to get a taster of the offering is, of course, tasting menus. Some top restaurants provide tasting menus for those seeking a special experience full of mystery. Put your taste buds in the hands of the chefs, and enjoy the theatre of being served a thought-through series of courses, expertly crafted. Often you’ll have the option to add on drinks pairings too!
