 A Gloucestershire village pub has been named Restaurant of the Year by readers of the Good Food Guide.
The Swan at Southrop beat top restaurants to receive the most votes from the 25,000 diners who voted for their favourite restaurants, pubs and cafes.
The judges praised the restaurant, only open since 2008, for its "impeccable" customer service. "As well as the careful sourcing of local raw materials and quality cooking from Sebastian Snow, the friendly service and value for money make it the kind of place we all want at the end of our street," said the Good Food Guide consultant editor Elizabeth Carter.
Sebastian and Lana Snow, who own the restaurant said, ‘'We are humbled and honoured to win this award in only our second year of trading." |

 A company based outside Bristol has experienced a large rise in demand for British curry style foods, which it ships out to customers on the Indian subcontinent.
British Corner Shop, based in Iron Acton, specialises in supplying homesick ex-pats with traditional British foodstuffs that they can't get abroad. Ironically there appears to be a big demand for spicy products such as curry sauces, and Indian-flavoured ready meals from India.
Managing director, Mark Callaghan said the most popular orders were the Fray Bentos Curry Pie, Sharwood's Sauces and Pot Noodle - in flavours such as Tikka Masala and Bombay Bad Boy. He said there has been a marked rise in demand for curry products globally, with demand from India alone rising 20% last year. |
