This week, I was invited to an event in Leeds with eShores, a travel company based in the north! This was such a fun event bringing together bloggers across the North of England—and it was also just a really great night!
The whole night was put together for eShores, to celebrate their multi-center USA holidays. eShores is a travel agency that specializes in tailor-made holidays. The best part about eShores is that the company really focuses on customer service—from your initial enquiry to the holiday, you will deal with the same travel consultant the whole way through. eShores travel agents have a vast knowledge and expertise about their destinations. If your travel consultant doesn’t have the first-hand knowledge you need, someone in their office probably does.
The event in Leeds was so much fun! The whole night was promoting their multi-center USA holiday to San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas. If you’ve been a long-time blog reader, you’ll know that I absolute LOVE Vegas. It is so much fun and there’s actually a lot of free things to do in Vegas! San Francisco is at the top of my list for my next trip to the US (where I’m not going home to Minneapolis, of course).
This event with eShores took place at Lambert’s Yard, a gorgeous event space in Leeds. It was less than a 5-minute walk from the train station, which was perfect for me. The night started out with cocktails, all inspired by San Francisco! A huge thanks to Anthony from Mix & Twist for the cocktails. My favorite was Californina Ginjito (gin, mint, apple juice, lime, sugar & soda), but I also loved the Wall Banger (vodka, mango & pineapple juice, mint & galliano).
The food at the event was absolutely phenomenal. We were treated to a three-course meal, which was inspired by the Los Angeles food scene! All the food was done by Bears Pantry. The starter was an amazing Hawaiian Tuna Poke.
The main was definitely my favorite: friend chicken, maple syrup sage biscuits, and Julienne potatoes. This was so tasty and definitely some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever had!
We finished up with our dessert, which was raspberry/pomegranate Greek yogurt martini. This was so fluffy and light and I ate literally all of it in just a couple minutes. Not only that, but we had Californian wines paired which each course which were amazing!

Have you ever thought about a USA trip to Vegas, San Fran, and LA?!
[…] Photo by Elouisa Georgiou [Website]Of everything that’s happened in the last year, I’m most proud of myself for attending several blogger events. It’s nerve-wracking for me to walk into a room where I don’t know anyone and network. But I’ve done it several times now, and I’m really proud of myself! Despite all of my amazing experiences traveling solo, I still sometimes get really bad social anxiety. So going to these events where I knew no one was huge for me! I went to the media promotion for the York Food and Drink Festival in September and went to Leeds for a USA-themed evening with eShores! […]
