Four 22-year-old men have opened their "dream" restaurant in the heart of Meanwood.
The group of chefs began their brand Dijon Chef earlier six months ago and were partnering up with Leeds eateries for special events to serve fine dining small plates. Now, they have opened their own restaurant inside Number 8 Cocktails in Stonegate Road, Meanwood.
The chefs create sharing dishes so people can try a bit of everything. Their menu includes seafood, meat dishes, veggie options and dessert small plates.

Their Sunday roasts are a big hit with punters with recent options including pork, beef and a veggie pick, while they will also be serving a variety of small plates. You can expect a regularly changing menu at the restaurant. Dijon Boys said: "The wait is finally over. Diners can get five small plates for £12.
"We are very excited to have this restaurant as it has been a dream of ours since starting the Dijon Boys. Having this space will allow us to get creative and serve up modern British small plates, additionally, we plan on adding new dishes on a monthly basis."
They added: "Using fresh and local seasonal produce is extremely important to us and will be an integral part of our food." The cocktail bar serves a range of sweet and sour tipples, and a DJ plays old-school music on an evening.
"We are so thankful for everyone who had supported our business whether it has been venues that have hosted us or customers who have dined with us. It is truly a dream come true."
Dijon Boys are open in Number 8 Cocktails from Wednesday to Sunday every week, serving from 4pm on week days and 12pm onwards on weekends.
