Food & drink in Gressoney-La-Trinité

Zenna is a Chinese restaurant at the end of Main Road in Pontesbury, the village in the Rea Valley south-west of Shrewsbury. It fills a timbered building with high ceilings and large windows, and the tables are generously spaced. There is easy parking on the street, and the double front doors give step-free access. The menu is long and the set menus are good value. Regulars recommend the crispy duck, beef with peppers in black bean sauce, salt and pepper chicken and ginger chicken, and there are vegetarian dishes such as vegetable chow mein and sweet and sour vegetables.

The Stables Inn

Minsterley

Drury Lane, Hopesgate, Minsterley, SY5 0EP

+441743891344

Wednesday and Thursday from 17:00; Friday and Saturday 12:00-22:00; Sunday 12:00-about 19:00, food until 15:30; closed Monday and Tuesday - call ahead

The Stables Inn has stood at Hopesgate since 1680, built as a drovers' inn for the farmers walking their stock from Wales to Shrewsbury market, and it still feels like one: low beams, a fire in the bar, the pub dog somewhere near it. It sits high in the Shropshire Hills, so the beer garden looks out over the Stiperstones side of the county. The kitchen cooks fresh, locally sourced food - a short main menu from Wednesday to Saturday and a Sunday roast that regulars book ahead for - and the pumps carry Shropshire real ales. There are rooms and a shepherd's hut for anyone who does not want to drive back down the lane. Opening days are limited and can change with the season, so a phone call before setting out is sensible.

Crown & Sceptre

Minsterley

Station Road, Minsterley, SY5 0BA

+441743650688

Monday 14:00-20:00; Tuesday to Thursday 12:00-22:30; Friday 12:00-23:00; Saturday 12:00-23:30; Sunday 12:00-20:00; food Tuesday to Saturday 14:00-20:00, Sunday 12:00-16:00

The Crown & Sceptre is Minsterley's village pub, family-run, with one big room that serves as lounge and bar, a separate dining room and two open fires that earn their keep in winter. Part of the old wattle-and-daub frame is left visible behind perspex, a reminder of how long the building has been here. The food is homemade pub cooking - fish and chips, gammon, pies - with a Sunday lunch that fills the dining room, so it is worth booking. One changing real ale in summer and two in winter, often from Wye Valley. There is a lawn and patio at the back, a bowling green, live music once a month, and dogs and children are welcome, children until 8 pm on Friday and Saturday.

Little Efes

Minsterley

Holly House, Minsterley, SY5 0BA

+441743791827

Evenings; check by phone

Little Efes is the takeaway in Minsterley for the evening when nobody wants to cook: Turkish grill and kebabs from the charcoal, doner and shish in bread or on a plate with rice and salad, plus burgers, pizzas and chips for the rest of the table. Portions are generous and the meat is cooked to order rather than kept warm. It is a small place, mostly collection, with a couple of seats while you wait. Cash only - there is no card machine - so bring notes. For a cottage stay in the Hope Valley it is the nearest hot meal after the pubs have stopped serving food.

Tharavadu

Leeds · Indian · Vegetarian · Lunch

Mill Hill 7-8, Leeds, LS1 5DQ

+441135190584

Mo 12:00-14:00, 17:00-22:00; Tu 12:00-14:00, 17:00-22:00; We 12:00-14:00, 17:00-22:00; Th 12:00-14:00, 17:00-22:00; Fr 12:00-14:00, 17:00-22:00; Sa 12:00-22:00; Su off

Tharavadu is a Kerala restaurant on Mill Hill in the centre of Leeds, and the distinction matters: Kerala is the far south-west coast of India, and its cooking — coconut, curry leaf, tamarind, a great deal of fish — is not the north Indian repertoire that most British curry houses serve. The house motto is pure devotion to quality and authenticity, and the kitchen holds to the one region. It opened in June 2014 and the recognition followed quickly. In 2015 it was named best Indian restaurant in Leeds at the Oliver Awards and placed in TripAdvisor's top ten Indian restaurants in the United Kingdom. In 2016 it appeared in the Michelin Restaurant Guide and in Harden's, and took the Oliver Award again. The restaurant describes itself as part of a wave of serious kitchens that changed how Leeds thinks about Asian food, which is a fair claim for a room that arrived before most of them. Service runs Monday to Friday in two sittings, lunch from midday to two and dinner from five to ten. On Saturday it stays open straight through from midday to ten. On Sunday it is closed altogether, which catches people out. Mill Hill sits between the station and the city square, a few minutes' walk from Leeds railway station, so this is one of the easiest addresses in the city to reach without a car. You will find Tharavadu at 7-8 Mill Hill, Leeds LS1 5DQ.

LIVIN ITALY

Leeds · Italian · Lunch · Dinner

Wharf Approach, Leeds, LS1 4BR

+441132430090

Mo 12:00-23:30; Tu 12:00-23:30; We 12:00-23:30; Th 12:00-23:30; Fr 12:00-00:30; Sa 10:00-00:30; Su 10:00-22:30

LIVIN'ITALY sits under the railway arches at Granary Wharf, on the canal side of Leeds station, and is three things in one space: a bar, an Italian restaurant and a deli. The arches give the room its shape, and the house makes a point of the fact that it is Italy lived rather than staged. The family business began in Milan in the 1980s, with the founders' parents and what they describe as a love of good food and honest hospitality; the Leeds house opened in 2012. It has been consistently named among the best Italian restaurants in Britain since. The four words the family uses for what it does — passion, tradition, integrity, simplicity — are worth repeating because the menu follows them: ingredients chosen for where they come from, dishes meant to be shared. Because the deli and the bar sit alongside the kitchen, the same address covers a morning coffee and a Negroni after midnight. Food can also be collected to take away, and gift vouchers are sold on the site. It opens at midday during the week and at ten at the weekend, running to half past eleven, and to half past midnight on Friday and Saturday. Granary Wharf is directly under Leeds station — a covered walk from the platforms. You will find LIVIN'ITALY at Wharf Approach, Granary Wharf, Leeds LS1 4BR.

Laynes Espresso

Leeds · Cafe · Vegetarian · Breakfast

New Station Street 16, Leeds, LS1 5DL

+447828823189

Mo 07:30-19:00; Tu 07:30-19:00; We 07:30-19:00; Th 07:30-19:00; Fr 07:30-19:00; Sa 08:00-19:00; Su 09:00-16:00

Laynes is a coffee house on New Station Street, immediately outside Leeds railway station, and it opened in 2011 into a city that had almost nothing of the kind. Fifteen years later it is the address people give when asked where the coffee is, and the restaurant is direct about what it set out to do: give Leeds a place that paid absolute attention to the quality of two ingredients, coffee and possibly milk, in a room where somebody would explain them. It has grown past that. There is a kitchen now, and the house claims some of the best breakfast and lunch in the city centre — a claim it can make because most of its competition is a chain. There is a Laynes bakery, and beans are sold through an online shop for anyone who wants to take the coffee home. Opening is early and long: half past seven in the morning to seven at night on weekdays, from eight on Saturday, and a shorter Sunday from nine to four. Tables can be booked, which for a coffee shop is unusual and says something about how busy it gets. New Station Street runs from the station entrance into the city, so this is the first door you pass arriving in Leeds by train and the last one leaving. You will find Laynes at 16 New Station Street, Leeds LS1 5DL.
