Homage to Bundobust // Vegan Blogs

 

I don't think I am exaggerating when I say that Bundobust is my favourite place in Leeds. Its been around only a year or so now, and I am obsessed. If you combined everything I love into one place, you'd get a Bundobust; beautiful vegan-friendly Indian food, an amazing (ever changing) craft beer selection, dog-friendly, awesome people and a lot of yellow. It's perfect. So, when I found out they had added some new bits to their menu I had to go give them a try. 

My absolute favourite addition was the Veg Rice Dry Fry, it reminded me a little of paella but spiced with Indian flavours and packed with veg. I could probably eat that until my stomach burst. We both couldn't stop eating the Far Far (little rice puffs) either, they were pretty perfect dipped in the black lentil Dhal (which was my second favourite!). I really really love a salad when I'm having Indian food, I use it as a a little crunchy palette cleanser so Kachumber Samharo was a welcome addition with its lemony dressing. Only two of the six new dishes aren't vegan; but I had Dixon there to give them a try. He seriously loved the Egg Bhurji and the Vada Pav (a spicy potato burger in a brioche fun! Incredibly jealous.)! The Vada Pav came with two fried and spice dusted green chillies which looked so so good. It all went hand in hand with one of my favourite beers; Five Point IPA!

One of the other great things about Bundobust is the portion size. They're perfect for sharing, Dixon and me usually get 3 or 4 dishes between us for a light meal. Bundobust is the perfect place to get a group of friends, have a few snacks, a few beers and an amazing time. If you're near to Leeds and haven't already been,  you have to make the trip, you will not regret it! (Find Bundobust on Instagram, Twitter and 6 Mill Hill, Leeds, LS1 5DG).

Judy's Affordable Vintage Fair

I went to my first ever vintage fair this weekend. Oh man, so so many beautiful things. I could probably have spent my entire life looking through everything there. I'm not sure why it has taken me so long to get to something like this; I love vintage stuff. I need to find some more events like this, really soon! One of the best thing about the whole fair though? It was SO cheap. I tentatively turned the tag over on a beautiful, massive, brown bag and it was £12! I couldn't believe it. Records for £3, beautiful dresses for £20 and books for pennies. (This isn't an advert, I swear).

There were so many more amazing things I should have photographed. Loads of antique rings, the knit-wear, piles of books and a little dog in a cute jacket. But, I get so nervous taking photos in places like this, I'm trying to get better but I'm a serious wimp. I'm never sure if I should ask before taking a photos!? And I don't want to get in the way...

I will definitely be going back to Judy's Vintage Fair when it comes to Leeds again (especially if its held in the Corn Exchange, my favourite Leeds building!), this time I'll make sure I have some spare money. If you're in England check out their website and see if they're coming close to you! You wont regret it.

I'm gutted that I didn't bring that tiger brooch home .

Well, today we got the keys! I had a wonder around and took some notes of things that need doing, nothing major (cover up an awful fireplace is the main thing). I took some window measurements because I'm thinking of making some curtains for the living room and the main bedroom. And tried to figure out what all the keys were for.

Then I had a quick explore around our new village. It has loads of little pubs and cafes that I am desperate to try out. Restaurants and furniture stores. There is a huge wood warehouse too that will come in handy when it comes to building my dining table.

Time to get finished packing ready for the move at the weekend then. Wish us luck!
