Description

The Grand Hotel – built in 1906 as the HQ of the North-Eastern Railway Company – is a building that certainly lives up to its name. Among its historic interiors lies Legacy, a formal restaurant with an elegant feel thanks to its parquet flooring and marble-topped tables. The kitchen is strong on technique and fuses Yorkshire ingredients with Japanese influences, from the use of ponzu to a chawanmushi-like dish of shiitake custard. The knowledgeable service team keep things running smoothly.
