Eat like Elvis in Leeds

If Elvis were alive today (despite lunatic conspiracy theories) and living in Leeds, where would he fill his black hole of an appetite? Itchy is here to deliver an all-you-can-eat guide to 24 hour binge-eating which would kill the average man...

A breakfast fit for 'The King': LS6 Café Bar
16a Headingley Lane
Hyde Park
LS6 2AS
0113 294 5464
Mon–Sun, 11am–11pm

Elvis Rating: Ain't nothin' like a hound dog, but you might be cryin'

First off on our greasy journey to the cardio ward at Leeds infirmary is LS6 Café Bar. Located on Headingley Lane this quirky little bar is famous for its monstrous all day breakfasts that will definitely get those taste buds singing. If you need time to digest your food, you can attempt to look intellectual by playing one of their many free board games. Just don't misspell 'CPR' in scrabble; you might need it later on...

Rock & Rolling lunch: The Spice Quarter
Electric Press Building
Great George Street
LS2 3AD
(0113) 2469241
Mon–Sun, 12pm–12am

Elvis Rating: Heart Attack Hotel

Let's shimmy on down to the centre to our next stop, The Spice Quarter in the Electric Press. If you want diversity, this place simply is dynamite, with a lunch buffet selection of Italian, Indian, and Thai and Chinese you can fill your face with intercontinental food all for £6.95.

A little less conversation, a little more burger please: Gourmet Burger Kitchen

29 East Parade
LS1 5PS
(0113) 243 5866
Mon–Fri, 12pm–11pm; Sat, 11am–11pm; Sun, 11am–10pm

Elvis Rating: Love Meat Tender

Now on to the main event. We all know how Big E loved his burgers so in tribute to his taste the next location is Leeds very own Gourmet Burger Kitchen. With over thirty different burgers to choose from you will definitely be spoiled for choice. Veggies have a wide selection too with portabella burgers and other non heart-stopping options. We just recommend you don't try and sample the entire menu all at once.

Party On: Gala Casino
Wellington Bridge Street
LS3 1LW
0113 389 3700

Elvis Rating: Shake, Rattle and Roll that dice

Once the lights go down, the party certainly doesn't stop. Casino's in Leeds are open 24 hours and serve food throughout the night. So get yourself to the Gala Casino. Gamble, drink, and eat until you eventually drop. But hopefully after following this guide your legacy will live on long after you have 'left the building'.

Uh thank you, uh thank you very much.
