Food News:Taste of London Wins Best Consumer Show at Exhibition News Awards

Taste of London restaurant festival has won the highly sought after ‘Best Consumer Show’ category at the 2012 Exhibition News Awards. Competition across the 20 categories was incredibly tough and reflected the diversity of the industry and the significant achievements made in the past year with winners being judged by a panel of industry experts. Taste of London restaurant festival, now in its ninth year, fought off strong competition from consumer events including The Ideal Home Show.

Taste of London, staged and managed by Brand Events, has grown rapidly since its conception in 2004 to become the capital’s largest open air food and drink festival. The restaurant festival brings together not just restaurants and food and wine suppliers, but a line-up of innovative and interactive programmes on cooking and eating. Taste of London has always attracted the crème de la crème of culinary talent and has showcased the talents of numerous Michelin-starred chefs including Wolfgang Puck, Michel Roux Jr and Gordon Ramsay.  

Tickets are now on sale to this year’s Taste of London restaurant festival that is taking place between 21 and 24 June in London’s Regent’s Park. This year, the festival celebrates the best of world class cuisine with a host of new international features and the most impressive line-up of Michelin starred restaurants and chefs in its history.  

Anjali Potter, Taste of London show manager, comments: “We’re delighted to have won this prestigious award, especially in a time of increased competition when new consumer festivals seem to be popping up every year. We're looking forward this year’s Taste of London festival which boasts an incredible line up of international flavour, and is set to be our best yet.”
