There was delight for Newcastle restaurant My Delhi on Tuesday night when it served up a victory on a new BBC cooking show.
Since it opened in 2019, the Clayton Street haunt has become a real favourite and no-one was more thrilled to see it triumph on Britain's Top Takeaway than its regular customers, who rushed to social media to congratulate staff as well as heralding a well deserved victory for them.
Britain's Top Takeaways, which started on BBC2 on Monday night, sees some of the nation's top eateries going head to head in a showdown that crowns a different winner each episode. Each stand-alone episode of the programme, hosted by Sara Cox, features a different takeaway, from Indian to Chinese, kebabs to fish and chips. Chefs from each eatery then cook up their favourite dishes, from a menu including a classic dish, chef’s special, a vegan option and sides, in a kitchen studio in Manchester, with the food then delivered to local households who will score and judge that episode's winner.
