The British Curry Awards Explained
The British Curry Awards is an annual awards dinner dedicated to the British curry industry. It was established in 2005 by Enam Ali[1] and has continued to this day. Each individual award is split for geographic purposes — regional splits of Scotland, North West, North East, Midlands, Wales, South East, South West, London Central and City, and London Suburbs — and expertise. The awards themselves are in association with JustEat.com, an online food delivery service.[2]
