Ashiana Takeaway in Ilkley is celebrating after being awarded the coveted accolade of Takeaway of the Year 2024 at the national Curry Life Awards 2024.
These prestigious awards, which were held this year in London on 13th October, are a hallmark of the British curry industry and a platform to honour the exceptional chefs, takeaways, and restaurants that have set new standards in the trade and culinary sector, recognising the best curry houses and curry chefs on a national scale.
Ashiana Takeaway, which is owned and managed by Forhad Miah, opened on Wells Road in May 2023 and offers the ultimate in authentic and contemporary Bangladeshi cuisine.
Mr Miah is delighted with his restaurant’s success and said:
“It was a very surreal moment. We were up against some great businesses and there were so many acclaimed Chefs in the room that we were flabbergasted when they announced that our little Takeaway in Ilkley had won the title of Best Takeaway of the Year!
“I can’t thank our customers enough who have voted for us throughout this campaign. Although we are relatively new to Ilkley we have made some amazing customers and friends, and without their support this wouldn’t have been possible.
“I’d also like to thank our amazing Chefs who have spent many hours in the kitchen preparing food to the highest standards. Without them, we wouldn’t have won. Their hard work and dedication has paid off and we are all overjoyed to bring the Trophy back to Ilkley.”
The award-winning Ashiana takeaway is at 7 Wells Road, Ilkley, LS29 9JB.
