The 47-year-old, who legally changed his name to Sheffield after taking part in a challenge on Celebrity Juice, said: “I love spending time in my Leeds restaurant and I’m really looking forward to sharing an evening with guests as we celebrate some of my favourite autumnal dishes.“As the temperature falls and the nights start drawing in, we’re naturally drawn to a more comforting way of eating and this is reflected in the new autumn / winter menu, which really makes the most of the season’s finest flavours.”

The new menu features dishes such as cozze con crema al vino bianco – mussels cooked in white wine, garlic, and cream; risotto al funghi – a mushroom risotto finished with a drizzle of truffle oil; and fettuccine con salsiccia – a pasta dish characterised by the inclusion of Tuscan sausages and cooked in a creamy ragù made with mascarpone cheese, folded through al dente ribbons of fettucine.

Tickets cost £200 and include a sparkling drinks reception, a bottle of Prosecco, a signed book and the gift bag. To book, Kelly Summerton on 0113 468 0804 or email [email protected].
