Halal restaurant winners at the Scottish Curry Awards 2018
Halal restaurants were well represented at the 11th annual Scottish Curry Awards held at Glasgow’s Crowne Plaza hotel on the banks of the River Clyde yesterday.
While the awards aim at celebrating the efforts and service of the Scottish Curry industry, the evening also helped fundraise for the Well Foundation.
Organised by Oceanic Consulting, its CEO, Irfan Younis, said: “The Scottish Curry Awards is one of the very first events which we did so it is very dear to us. Throughout the last ten years, we have admired the tenacity of the curry industry despite the numerous challenges. The Scottish Curry Awards is one of the few times when the industry’s establishments and individuals are recognised and we’d like to congratulate all of this year’s nominees and winners.”
The success of the Scottish Curry Awards is what led to the creation of the English Curry Awards, as well as the inaugural London Curry Awards which is due to take place later this month on the 30th.
