There were more than 2,400 entries in this year’s competition, with the finalists chosen based on a survey of over 350,000 customers from the food and table booking app ChefOnline, and the winners selected by a panel of judges ranging from top chefs to MPs and ex-England cricketer Devon Malcolm.

Khushboo’s owner Aktar Ali called the award an ‘incredible honour’, adding: “We thank our valued customers in Sheffield without whom this would not have been possible. Curry and Asian food have become such a huge part of British culture and to be recognised as the best in the North East UK is truly remarkable.”

Salik Munim, ARTA’s chief executive, said: “Year on year, the standard for this competition continues to defy imagination. With more entrants than ever before, we have been immensely impressed by the quality on show this year.”
