We ventured out to Leeds contemporary Italian restaurant Salute at The White Swan in Rothwell. The rustic eatery has picked up glowing reviews and previously made the headlines for treating a group of young boys who'd saved up their money to eat there.
As soon as we arrived, the staff were hospitable and helfpul and they came to check on us throughout the meal to make sure everything was going smoothly. To begin with, we were given a complimentary tub of mayo and each a packet of thin cracker-like bread sticks. These came as a welcome addition to our meal to whet the appetite.
There was relaxing music playing in the background which enhanced the chilled out vibe - which was perfect after a long day of work. The Italian restaurant had a laid back pub vibe with tasteful ambient lighting, which I suppose is what the Salute bosses were going for with a contemporary rustic feel.
