Top 5 - Laura and Jim

Yay! I have another top 5 post for you all! This one comes from Laura and Jim of new(ish) blog Mashtun and Meow.

The Broadfield - the best homemade pies and sausages in the city, accompanied by a fine selection of ales.

Wick At Both Ends - excellent variety: a seasonally changing menu with an emphasis on local produce, providing modern twists to traditional British classics. Fabulous cocktails!

Revolucion de Cuba - always a crowd pleaser, and a great venue for any social occasion thanks to the fantastic atmosphere.

Urban Choola - a unique take on classic Indian dishes which offers something a little different to your usual curry house.

The Street Food Chef - speedy service, tasty Mexican food, and budget friendly. Sombreros encouraged.

Some nice choices - thank you Laura and Jim for sharing. If you would like to have your favourites posted in this section, email a list of your top five destinations for eating and drinking, including a short sentence about each, to me at live-to-eat@hotmail.co.uk.

Top 5 - Richard Brownhill

The latest Top 5 comes from Richard Brownhill who is both a beer and food lover; check out his beer blog here. In the meantime, his top 5 places to eat in Sheffield are below: 

Gusto, Norfolk Row - A drop of real elegance in the Steel City, unbelievable food and slick service. The wine list is untouchable too. Whether its the lunchtime buzz or evening intimacy, this place really sets the bar. Easily my favourite. 

Chichainn, Broomhill - A new addition, but so much more than your typical Chinese restaurant. Locally sourced meats and fish together with traditional cooking methods. Brilliant post-dinner tea selection too. 

Marmadukes Cafe, Norfolk Row - Amazing breakfasts and free refills on tea. Do I need to say more? Constantly changing sandwich selection and lovely fresh breads top it off. Not a fan of the enamel plates though. 

The Rutland Arms, Brown Street - The best pub food in the city by a country mile. With an awesome beer selection too. The bhaji butty is a revelation, and try a cheeky blob of homemade vanilla ice cream with a drizzle of chilli porter. Wow. 

Fitzwilliam and West, West One - Sheffield had been crying out for a good steakhouse, and now it's got one. But this place is more than just that - a really versatile menu that includes brunch, sandwiches and seafood is complemented by a lovely wine selection. But despite all the choice, look no further than the 28oz Sirloin known as "The Brendan". 

What do you think then? Do you agree or disagree with Richard's choices? If you would like to have your favourites posted in this section, email a list of your top five destinations for eating and drinking, including a short sentence about each, to me at live-to-eat@hotmail.co.uk.

Top 5 - Josh Murray

Josh Murray provides his top five places to eat in Sheffield. Check them out below; 

Marco at MilanoGreat tasting, posh Italian food with great service. An out of town location means a taxi ride from the centre, but it's worth the effort. 

SilversmithsNow a firm favourite of ours. Intimate restaurant that has found its feet and does great British food using local ingredients. Disclosure - I know Justin. 

ArtisanWhere we go if we want to get dressed up and have a special night out in Sheffield. Really good food, the service has always been great and they have a nice selection of wine. 

Tamper at the Sellers WheelMy wife took me here for lunch this week and the food was full of flavour and the coffee was absolutely superb (even the decaf!). 

Wig & PenMy go-to place for business lunches and after-work drinks. Their yummy burgers and fish & chips are my favourites!

Top 5 - Leigh Richmond

First up in the Your Sheffield Favourites section is Leigh Richmond (@leighcrichmond). Check out his favourites below. 
Gusto Authentic Italian food in a quaint atmosphere. Desserts to die for! 
Rafters Plate wise, as close to London fine dining as you will get in Sheffield, but with a homely feel. 
Losehill House  Not entirely Sheffield, but had to squeeze in purely down to the taste, presentation and views while eating. No idea how this place isn't Michelin starred. 
Devonshire Arms, Middle Handley  Gastro pub at its best. Ever changing menu on the chalk board that always impresses me. Plus they have strawberry beer on tap! 
Milestone  The driver of good food in Sheffield. Gastro feel, with fine dining food. Even a simple brunch is an amazing experience.
