Alea Leeds The Leeds Kitchen
Chef James Martin's restaurant The Leeds Kitchen, situated at Alea Leeds, was forced to close unexpectedly last month when the casino's owners London Clubs International made the decision to shut down the entire venue.
The Government's lack of support for the gaming industry and the venue's out-of-town location were cited as factors for their decision.
Although Martin's restaurant and Bird had been busy according to venue director Charles Merchie, it was not enough to safeguard their future.
