Exquisite, inventive dishes have helped two Nottingham restaurants shoot up the rankings in the National Restaurant Awards 2022 - and the owner of the restaurant named the best in the country previously trained at one of them.
The annual ratings are calculated from the votes of more than 200 experts including chefs and critics who submit their best restaurant experiences over the past 12 months across the UK. The scores take into consideration the quality of the food, service, atmosphere and price.
Welsh restaurant Ynyshir tops the table. The "antithesis of a boring country house hotel" in Machynlleth, Powys, offers a tasting menu described as "in-your-face, Asian-influenced food and a rambunctious atmosphere."
