Date set for National Restaurant Awards 2014

The National Restaurants Awards in association with Estrella Damm, Restaurant magazine’s annual count down of the top 100 restaurants in the UK, is marking its seventh year by becoming a summer event, and will be held on 30 June at The Hurlingham Club in south west London.  

The new National Restaurant Awards will have a brand new format and a bigger, more exclusive venue - and promises to be this year’s must attend party for the restaurant community.  

The essence of the awards will remain the same, with the event recognising the top 100 UK restaurants as voted for by an expert panel chefs, restaurateurs, food writers and critics, but will have more of a summer party feel. On the night the National Restaurant of the Year will be announced, as well as the best restaurants in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales.

In addition, on the same day, The Hurlingham Club will play host to the inaugural Estrella Damm Gastronomy Congress, with Restaurant magazine. This innovative event focussing on Modern Tapas will feature live cooking demonstrations showcasing the skills of Michelin-starred chefs, including David Gil and Fran Agudo from Tickets, Barcelona, as well as a keynote talk from world-renowned chef Ferran Adria.

More demonstrations by world-renowned chefs will be announced soon.  To book your place at the National Restaurant Awards in association with Estrella Damm, contact Kathrin Leaver – kathrin.leaver@wrbm.com, 01293 610465.  For more information on attending the Estrella Damm Gastronomy Congress, email EstrellaDamm.Congress@wrbm.com
