Employee of the Month – March

The local eateries with go up against the best Asian restaurants and takeaways from around Scotland after more than 10,000 people voted online for their favourite venues, with 70 businesses making the shortlist.

Hosted by BBC News anchor Samantha Simmonds, the gala dinner and awards ceremony will take place at The Sheraton Grand Hotel in Edinburgh on September 18.

The awards, being held for the seventh time, are organised by the Asian Catering Federation (ACF).

ACF chairman Yawar Khan said: “We are seeing some remarkable creativity by pioneering restaurateurs and chefs, adapting to challenging trading conditions and more sophisticated customer preferences, showcasing Scotland’s world-leading produce, especially its seafood, game, neeps and tatties.”

You’ll be pleased to know, that we don’t just excel in looking after our diners but also our own staff!

Itihaas’s very own Matin Khan takes a particular interest in noting best service provided by his own troops! And to thank them in making Itihaas a successful Indian restaurant, this special individual will receive the Employee of the Month Award.

March’s Award goes to … Abbas. Why? Because he is dedicated to looking after and providing the perfect dining environment to not just his own customers but everyone else in the restaurant.

During March, Abbas unfortunately had to refuse to seat a party of six, as two of the guests were extremely drunk. Maybe not what everyone wanted for their dining entertainment! While business is always appreciated, this (specific) party would have disturbed other guests in the restaurant and so were politely refused a table.

And so, in considering all of Itihaas’s diners, Abbas wins a bottle of wine!
