**BRIEF PLOT**
Leon, (played by Jean Reno) is a mild mannered French man living in New York City's 'little Italy'. Unbeknown to all around him he is secretly a professional hit man, (or cleaner) working for the local Mafia boss Tony, (played by Danny Aiello), who uses a 'Macaroni' retail store to front his small empire.

Advantages: ethical, good food reasonable Disadvantages: run out of things latein the day, a non flushing toilet on one vsiit
more interesting like a non alcoholic Mojito. If its a really hot day and I'm really thirsty I go for the lemon, ginger and mint quencher which is an infusion of all the ingredients. Its a bargain at £1.50 and it just tastes so bold and zingy as all three ingredients are strong flavours.
Sometimes when I am at Leon i feel naughty and buy a sweet treat to go with my drink. They have a number of tarts that look very yummy such as dark chocolate tart and pecan pie. These cost £2,30 take away or £2.70 ea in which is again fairly reasonable . The last time I visited for an after work chat with some colleagues (I persuaded them it was better than Starbucks , which I believe is true) I fancied a Life by Chocolate mousse but they had ran out. Instead I had a lemon ginger crunch for £2.10. This was a slice of prepackaged cake about the size ...

Advantages: Architecture, history and authentic Spanish feel Disadvantages: A long road from home
León is a city and district in Northwest Spain, far from being typical English tourist territory. But this is where the Spanish tourists from the South of Spain come ! They know what is good for them!
GETTING THERE
=
The only port you are likely to use from UK is the port of Santander, and you will have a day's drive to get to León.
Airports that will speed you to León are Oviedo or Bilbao.
You could drive up from Madrid, but even the Spanish do not seem to relish that length of drive.
We drove from Oviedo in Asturias, where we were staying - reviews already written on Asturias and Picos De Europa.
It was a pleasant jaunt on the motorway - about 2 hours drive.
MAIN ATTRACTIONS

The CATHEDRAL dominates the skyline.
The darkness at door level, leads into a massive space inside which is ...
