A CURRY restaurant is celebrating after winning the ‘best restaurant’ category in County Durham.
Le Raaj, based at Chester Moor, near Chester-le-Street, scooped the prize in the annual Curry Life Awards in London.
The annual industry awards were held in a glittering ceremony at central London’s Hotel Hilton on Park Lane.
More than 800 people attended the gala evening hosted by TV presenters Cathy Newman and Adam Shaw.
The 130-seat restaurant opened in 2010 and underwent a major refurbishment last year.
Owner Rezwan Ahmed said: “I’m really passionate about food and love being a restaurateur.
“I don’t think you can succeed in this market without giving it everything you’ve got.”
