                <description><![CDATA[Croques is a great place to stop off for a lunch in Leicester city centre.<br><br>It's situated in the heart of the Leicester lanes (just off the High Street) and serves a fine range of freshly prepared sandwiches, baguettes, melts, wraps, salads and jacket potatoes. Plenty of veggie options are available too.<br><br>The place is always busy (a good sign for any cafe/restaurant), is great value for money and is situated in one of the nicer shopping streets in the city.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[This hidden gem serves the best cooked breakfast in Leicester.<br><br>Situated upstairs at The Barley Mow pub, the welcome is always warm, the service efficient and the food unpretentious and freshly prepared. <br><br>A full English with toast and tea comes in at around £4.25 and never fails to satisfy. <br><br>Highly recommended.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[I visited this diner in Leicester yesterday lunchtime and was really looking forward to it. I ordered and received my meal - the burgers were awful and tasted like a burger van burger. The burger was a chargrilled cardboard brown disc - you will not attract return visits serving burgers of such a low quality.<br><br>I then paid £1 each for two toppings - cheese and pineapple (one four pence cheese slice and one small slice of pineapple) - a topping should cover the top of the burger not just the centre of the burger.<br><br>My wife had a steak wrap! Soggy wallpaper wrapping up gristle and boiled, not fried, onions!! <br><br>The standard of food is without doubt the worst I have ever experienced.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Vegetarian delight on Belgrave Road. The Thalis are always fresh and filled with seasonal simplicity. They range from spicy and tongue fizzing to more sober and flavoursome offerings. <br><br>The chapatis are superb and the dosa and parathas are very authentic. But my favourite is the lassi, always sweet, always moreish.<br>And I once drove from Hull and returned merely for the curry. What's more, the service is always friendly and welcoming.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[The best vegetarian Indian restaurant in town, which is saying something. Some of the 50 or so dishes will be new to many - for starters, try mysore bonda (amazingly light fried lentil balls with coconut dips), mosar vade (lentil doughnuts in yogurt) or a tangy, crunchy bhel puri. <br><br>Highlights among the mains include dosais, aloogadde soppu (the best spinach and potato dish I've eaten), a wonderful mutter paneer and a vibrant, earthy beetroot sasami. It's cheap, too: the most expensive main dish is £5.75. Service is always friendly, helpful and relaxed.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[If you come to Leicester, you can't leave without having a curry, and if you're veggie, you can't leave without visiting Bobby's. All you can eat buffet downstairs, a la carte upstairs, and a great snacks and sweets counter too. I could eat the Paneer Shashlick and Lemon rice every day and never get bored.]]></description>
