Head chef Josh Whitehead has had a stellar year at city centre restaurant Kino.
While he said he can’t remember how or when he got into cooking, Josh has been putting Leeds on the map with his food. He has headed many kitchens in the city, including the Harewood Food and Drinks Project, Ox Club in the Headrow and Olive and Rye in Queen’s Arcade.

He added: “This is a really hard job.
