Brasserie Blanc, Leeds


Game on at Brasserie Blanc

Diners at Brasserie Blanc in Leeds can't get enough Yorkshire game. So much so that manager, Jayne Castle, has invited Nigel Sampson from Holme Farmed Venison in Sherburn in Elmet to host a special Game Evening at the Brasserie on Monday 24th October.


City girl Jayne donned her wellies and met up with the team on the farm to put the finishing touches to the sumptuous seasonal menu. The 3-course dinner will start with platter of guinea fowl and prune terrine as well as smoked venison haunch, Maman Blanc salads, bread and chutney. The main course is packed with autumnal flavours and includes venison saddle with a chocolate sauce and Blackberry Vinegar made by us at Womersley!

Fresh game is at it's best at this time of year and a combination of wider availability, celebrity chef endorsement and strong healthy eating benefits has seen the public's appetite for all types of game increase in recent years. This is always evident at Brasserie Blanc with venison outstripping other meat dishes when it is on the seasonal specials board.

Jayne Castle, said: “We want to support our local suppliers and showcase their products in the Brasserie. Our chefs love nothing more than being able to work with fresh, local produce and they've excelled themselves with this game themed menu. Diners on the night will be able to hear Nigel and Kate's story and find out more about glorious game  and life on the farm.”

The Game Dinner is £39 per person for a 3-course dinner and mulled wine reception. Book places online at www.brasserieblanc.com or call 0113 2206060.
