Brunching with Pie Minister

Brunching with Pie Minister

You know the only decent pie restaurant on the highstreet right now? They’ve only gone and launched a bottomless brunch haven’t that. Needless to say I was pretty chuffed to be invited to indulge in the dreamy combo of brunch pies and a tipple or two. Or three. Or y’know, leaving feeling pretty tipsy on a Saturday afternoon.

I headed to the Leeds restaurant with one of my best gals, Jenna, (she’s a friend from way back in primary school), for a catch up, carbs and some Saturday fizz. We were there to review, but at £20 a person for 90 minutes, I’d say that it’s probably the best value bottomless brunch deal in Leeds right now. For that, you get a brunch main and bottomless prosecco, Aperol Spritz, Mimosas or Bloody Marys. Oh hello you delightful combo.

We both started off with an Aperol Spritz each as neither of us had tried it before but I decided to move onto prosecco and Jenna switched to mimosas. I must admit, I was impressed with the service as a lot of places offering bottomless brunch will only bring you another drink when you’ve finished your first but our glasses were never empty. Our waitress even came over just before our 90 minutes was due to be up to get us another drink.

The brunch menu isn’t absolutely massive but it does have two brunch pies (one meat, one veggie), skillets for those wanting something less carb heavy and of course, avo on toast. The menu covers off gluten free and vegan dietary requirements too which is great to see, plus there’s enough variation to please the pickiest of eaters. Jenna and I both went for a brunch pie, Jenna going for meat and me choosing the veggie option, and both were served with braised beans and fried bread. The ‘Morning Glory’ pie which Jenna had was free range sausage, cheddar and potato hash top pie with cheese béchamel, a baked egg, tomato and crispy bacon. Mine (the Munch Brunch) was smoked cheese, veggie sausage, mushroom and potato hash top pie with a baked egg, tomato and halloumi. Let’s be honest, I was sold with the halloumi.

We both seriously enjoyed the food, the pies were tasty and the braised beans were the perfect accompaniment. It felt like proper ‘brunch’ food as it was breakfast food in a lunch-y setting. We did the 11am sitting which worked perfectly for us as we didn’t have to get up super early but we also then had the rest of the day afterwards too.

At the moment, Pie Minister is serving bottomless brunch every other weekend and they have sittings at either 11am or 3pm. For more info, check out their website here. 

Will you be indulging in a bottomless brunch soon? Let me know in the comments!

Networking. For me, that word immediately conjures up the image of navigating a crowded room and making polite conversation, whilst awkwardly balancing a glass of bubbly and canapés. As someone who dislikes being in a social situation with a large group of people, this sounds like my worst nightmare.  If you've been to university or attended any kind of careers talk, you will have heard people say how important networking is. You may be familiar with phrase 'it's not what you know, it's who you know' or the idea that you have to push your way into business, adding everyone who's anyone to your contact list, to get ahead in life. Swanning around careers fairs or business events trying to charm employers into believing they need me in their company just isn't my style. Well, I'm here to tell you you don't need to do that to gain valuable contacts in your industry and even secure an internship.  Thinking About Work Experience Remember my last post where

Why You Need Liability Coverage From Your Insurance Company

Image
Designed to cover professional practitioners against claims of negligence made by clients or patients, professional liability insurance goes by many names. When used in the medical profession, it is commonly called medical malpractice coverage.  Notaries public also require this security, but they refer to it as errors and omissions insurance. Real estate brokers, management consultants, and even website developers are all eligible for protection. What's It For? Insurance is used to protect people in case something unfortunate happens. Auto policies protect them in the event of an accident; medical policies protect them from unexpected illnesses; commercial policies protect them from a number of mishaps. If there is a fire, theft, or an accident on the job, the commercial variety will cover it. Why You Need It Few companies are fortunate enough to survive for a protracted period of time without getting sued by a client, customer, or employee. Liability coverage

10 things about going to IKEA as an adult

10 things about going to IKEA as an adult Photo credit: pixabay Confession time, I recently went to IKEA for the first time as an adult. I must have been around 6 years old when I last went to IKEA and let me tell you, it’s a weird af experience to someone who’s never been before as a grown up. I recently went with my friend Maz who is an IKEA enthusiast to say the least and whilst I wasn’t quite as enthusiastic about the shop itself, I was definitely looking forward to seeing the scale of excitement she experienced – I wasn’t let down. Here are my thoughts on going to IKEA as an adult. 1.   It’s just like Argos but instead of flicking through a catalogue, you walk through it. 2.   All of the little rooms that are done up look like they’re straight out of an AirBnB. 3.   Why don’t I have a blank canvas of a flat to just do out exactly like the done up rooms? 4.   As I walked round, I quickly realised that the person I bought my fully furnished flat from clearly had the same idea as I
