Itihaas delivered 60 lunchtime meals

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.”

When Claire Neish from Midlothian’s Health and Social Care team contacted us for help, we were only glad to step up!

“In yet another example of #kindnessmidlothian, local food business Itihaas kindly delivered 60 lunchtime meals to hard working staff at Fairfield House recently.

Claire Neish from Health and Social Care liaised with the restaurant to make this possible. She is pictured with restaurant owner Matin Khan (centre) and his staff member Mohammed Abbas.

Claire said ‘Thanks to Matin and his team. This gesture was very much appreciated by all and was good for staff morale. He has kindly expressed his willingness to make similar donations to other work locations if needed.’”
