Family-owned Indian restaurant Castle Balti has been awarded ‘Best in Warwickshire’ at this year’s ‘Tommy Miah’s International Indian Chef and Hospitality’ awards.
Located in Warwick town centre, St Johns. The team at Castle Balti recently attended the glittering awards ceremony at the Burlington Hotel in Birmingham. VIP guests included MP Jess Phillips and Eastenders actor Nitin Ganatra.
Manager Nurul Sarder commented: “Since taking over just 12 months ago we have been on a quest to create an award-winning restaurant.
“To be honest, we didn’t expect it so soon, it was a huge surprise for us all. We focus on food quality and authenticity here at Castle Balti and it’s this focus that has led us to this award.”
Castle Balti was among 10 finalists after being whittled down from thousands of applicants. The Tommy Miah’s International Indian Chef of the Year and Hospitality awards has recognised the world's top culinary and hospitality talent for over 30 years. This year, they continue to celebrate legends and discover new stars from around the globe.
Head Chef Mohammed Ruhul Amin, said: “We’d like to every customer past and present for your support.
“We are food centric, not style over substance. Customers bring their alcohol, some people in the industry think this is a disadvantage not being licensed but it allows us to invest more time, resources and money into the kitchen, ingredients, staff and other key areas of the business.”
