Scottish 2016 Welcome to the 9th annual Scottish Curry Awards! www.lovecurry.info
The Scottish Curry Awards is an annual celebration of the continuous hard work and determination of the restauranteurs, takeaways, chefs and the men and women at the forefront of the curry industry. Since the inception of the awards in 2008, the Scottish Curry Awards have grown from strength to strength and the enthusiastic response we have received has proven that this year has been as much of a success as previous years. The Awards embody the continuing strength of Scotland’s curry community, recognising the vision, talent and creativity of individuals which has led to their success in the ever evolving hospitality sector. We would like to thank you all for attending, the public for voting and the sponsors and partners for coming on board. Due to the continuous support over the years, the awards have been able to grow and develop as a platform to showcase the incredible work that is done to keep curry as the nation’s favourite meal. Good luck to all the finalists and thank you all for attending.
