🍽️Every week at the café, we sit down and decide together what we’d like to cook next time

🍝 Italian food is always a favourite so we knew it was time to get the pasta machines out this week and get rolling!

Great teamwork, great fun and a winning lunch 👍👍👍

🎉It’s been an incredible summer here at the Welcome Café!

🌍From samosas to shiro, borsch to bread, we’ve travelled around the world led by those who have so generously shared their culture and recipes with us.

😊And even more importantly than the food, we’ve met so many wonderful people who have become part of the Welcome Café.

🧡A huge thanks to everyone who has come along this summer, and of course, our fantastic Tara!

🍂As we head into autumn you can still find us every Wednesday 11am-2pm at Leeds Cookery School inside Kirkgate Market, or you can contact Tara on 0113 240 6677 if you’d like some more information.
