Shoppers visiting Leeds’ White Rose Shopping Centre will be able to indulge in a taste of the Orient as a new Wok&Go restaurant opened last week.
The new, 810 sq ft eatery will offer a selection of Asian-inspired wok tossed noodles, stir fries, curries, soups, vegetarian and rice dishes, plus healthier skinny noodles, all cooked fresh to order.
Wok&Go has invested £180,000 to create the new dining experience at the centre. Boasting mall seating for 35 customers and a restaurant capacity of 50, the restaurant has created 12 new jobs in the centre, comprising of seven full-time and five part-time positions.
Dean Stratton, centre manager at White Rose, said: “Securing Wok&Go in the centre is another great achievement for White Rose and we’re really excited to welcome the new restaurant.
“Wok&Go is renowned for its fresh, nutritious food and its unique dining experience, which I know will be very popular with our shoppers. The eatery will also add a new dimension to our current food and beverage offering, which includes Prezzo, Frankie & Benny’s, Nandos, Primo’s Gourmet Hot Dogs, McDonald’s, Subway, Spudulike, Bagel Nash, Costa Coffee, Juice and Coffee Creations.”
Wok&Go will be situated next to the main Upper Circle entrance, opposite the new Italian restaurant, Prezzo, which opened in November last year.
Michael Evans, operations director at Wok& Go, said: “We’re really excited to be launching the new restaurant at White Rose. This is the 12th restaurant of our ever expanding brand and we are really looking forward to working alongside such a vibrant shopping centre.
“We pride ourselves on producing delicious, Asian-inspired cuisine that’s cooked to order for our customers and we’re looking forward to bringing a new style of dining to White Rose shoppers.”
The new restaurant will be open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 10am to 8pm, Thursday 10am to 9pm, Saturday 9am to 7pm and Sunday 11am to 5pm. For more information about Wok&Go visit www.wokandgo.co.uk.
