It was only last month that the restaurant won 'Asian Restaurant of the Year' for the second consecutive year at the Asian Restaurant Awards, so they are no stranger to fierce competition and earning bragging rights.
Masum Uddin, the owner said: "I never take these awards for granted. I am really delighted on behalf of the whole team. I would also like to thank all of our customers who have supported us this year.
"My team is really dedicated and hard-working and I know that it means a lot to them to be recognised in this way. We always do the best we can, both with our food offering and with our customer service."
The Scottish Asian Food Awards 2022 are organised by Oceanic Consulting – the UK’s leading ethnic awards company. A spokesperson for the Scottish Asian Food Awards said: "We’d like to say a massive congratulations to all winners and finalists from the 3rd Scottish Asian Food Awards 2022.
"This campaign designed to honour all varieties of Asian cuisine has done brilliantly across Scotland and it started in 2018. We’re proud to honour and celebrate the individuals who open Scotland’s doors to Asia’s kitchen."
