Bavette, Hosforth: The brilliant new French-inspired restaurant which is a rising star in the Yorkshire culinary scene

Sometimes you walk into a restaurant and you know straight away you’re going to eat well. Bavette is one of those places. We had barely sat down at our table when the heady aromas of hot cheese and freshly baked bread made a full frontal assault on my nostrils to which I happily surrendered. I was confident it would be a good evening and I wasn’t wrong. Bavette is a new neighbourhood bistro in Horsforth. Technically Horsforth is a town, though it’s also classed as a suburb of Leeds .

The phrase “less is more” springs to mind and in my experience a concise menu is usually a sign of a confident kitchen and the food, centred around classically inspired dishes with a focus on seasonality, is stonkingly good. We weren’t planning on having any “snacks” but the sight and smell of a small plate of Comte cheese croquettes arriving at the table next to ours proved too hard to resist. And I’m glad I let temptation get the better of me.
