Bradford awarded UK Curry Capital Super City status
Bradford has narrowly missed out on the title of UK Curry Capital, but has been awarded the status of Super City.
Bradford was one of four cities to score 80 out of 100 in the competition. The judges decided that such a high score should be recognised and the new award of Super City was awarded to Bradford, along with six other cities.
The restaurants representing Bradford this year included Aagrah, Anam's, Kipling's, Markaz and Mumtaz. Kipling's was commended for its charity fundraising making £2,011 in one day. The judges were also impressed with the Bradford presentation, which was delivered in a foil take-away tray.
Event Organiser and Editor of Menu Magazine Peter Grove commented that "the standard of restaurants in each city was so high this year that they represent the grail of curry trails".
Bradford won the title of Curry Capital in 2004 and won the EthniCity award in 2006
