Restaurant wins top gong at curry awards

A HELENSBURGH business has been named as Scotland’s Indian Restaurant of the Year at the Scottish Curry Awards.

It was another success for manager Subu and his team at the restaurant on James Street, who are no strangers to prizes.

Masala Twist were also named as the south west Indian Restaurant of the Year at the award ceremony which took place in Glasgow on Monday, April 15.

A spokesperson from the eatery said: “We like to thank all our customers and staff. We are very happy.”

We reported last year that the team won ‘Voters’ Best Choice Restaurant of the Year’ accolade for the south-west of

Scotland and the whole of the country.

The Masala Twist team is now competing in the annual Spice Awards and with restaurants across the UK at the British Curry Awards.
