A Wolverhampton restaurant was crowned Best Indian Restaurant in the Midlands at an awards celebrating the nation’s finest curry houses.
Penn Balti, in Penn Road, won the impressive title at this year’s Euro Asia Curry Awards.
The annual event honours the very best curry eateries in the UK and the hardworking and talented people behind them.
Hundreds of businesses and individuals were nominated for the awards, which include categories such as Best Restaurant, Best Takeaway and Best Chef.
Around 50 regional and national winners were chosen and received their gongs at a ceremony at Mayfair in Romford, London on November 26.
Also a winner on the night was Panshi, in Heath Way, Cannock, which was named Best Indian Restaurant in Staffordshire.
The Euro Asia Awards, now in their eighth year, were founded by Bangladeshi chef, Shorif Khan.
He said: "We’re very excited to once again be celebrating the incredible people, restaurants and takeaways that make the UK curry industry as loved as it is.
"Annually, the industry contributes more than £5 million to the country’s economy and 2024 has been a particularly strong year."
Among those presenting accolades was five-time British heavyweight boxing champion Julius Frances.
