Food Scene
Air BnB wont allow inputs that aren't listed on Google.
But if you feel like very cheap, perfectly good pizza, next door to this place is where I would suggest. Cheese and tomato starts at €3.00 I think.

Asian food is very plentiful in Lindenau. If you are from France, UK or USA you will probably not be very impressed with anything here. (don't eat the sushi anywhere!)
However this place is not bad and the service is really friendly.

But next to this Vegan supermarket is a Vietnamese/ Thai place that's not bad. I forget the full name but it contains the words "Trans Phat" so we just call it Trans Fat.
If you're from USA/ France/ UK or places known for good Asian food you might not be massively impressed with anything Leipzig has to offer. But this place is pretty good.

This place prides itself on its authenticity. People who go there rave about how it is so authentic.
I've lived in China, and I have to say, it is much closer to the type of food you might see there, albeit heavily focused on Szechuan cooking. So if that sounds like something you want to experience then go for it.
However, I have to add, you pay a hefty price for "authenticity" here. With a one person portion of rice costing €3- €4.50, vegetable meals (small) ranging from €8- €15 and small meat dishes from €12 - €20 4 people would easily walk out of here with a bill of about €100.

My favourite bar / cafe/ cake place at the moment.
Lots of outdoor seating which is perfect in the summer and a cosy log cabin for nights and winter.
They sell good priced beer, cakes and coffee. Workers are always friendly. I like this place a lot.

Firstly, this place is weird. It's full of knock off art and the beer is sometimes bad.
However, there is something about it I like, its a local bar but lots of different people go here.
Come here to meet your average Saxony jederman, French erasmus students, punks, hippies, dog owners and football fans.
They serve huge portions of edible (dont expect gourmet) food for very cheap.
Always open. Closes for one hour so the bartender can have a nap.

It's nice around here. Lots of walking trails. Ask us if you are interested, there is a nice walk to here down the canal and at the end there are some abandoned buildings that you aren't allowed (but can) go in. We don't advise anyone goes in them but if you do you will really like it and have a great time. Excellent views from the roof.
Also, it's not where it says it is on the map - ask us.
