Barbar Elephant in Morecambe and Lunesdale has been nominated by David Morris MP to take part in the prestigious Tiffin Cup Competition to find the best South Asian restaurant in the country.
Following the success of the Tiffin Cup 2014 MP’s have for the 10th year running, been asked to nominate a restaurant in their constituency as the best South Asian restaurant in the UK. Last year 94 restaurants were nominated across the country.
The Tiffin Cup is awarded every year by the Tiffin Club of MP’s formed in 2006 by former MP John Barrett, Michael Fabricant MP and Keith Vaz MP. The aim is not only to applaud the quality of South Asian Food in Britain but also to raise much needed money for charity. This year the competition is being held in aid of ‘Word Vision’.
The Grand Final of the Tiffin Cup 2015 is to be held in the House of Commons on Tuesday 27th October.
Chair of the Club Keith Vaz MP said:
‘After the overwhelming success of last year’s competition we are looking forward to another chance to sample some of the best offerings of Indian food in Britain. I wish Barbar Elephant good luck in the competition’
David Morris MP said:
‘I am delighted that the nomination for Barbar Elephant has been accepted and will take part in this year’s Tiffin Cup. This is such a prestigious competition and I look forward to welcoming Barbar Elephant to the House of Commons should they win their regional heat.
I am sure everyone in Morecambe and Lunesdale will be rooting for Barbar Elephant to become Tiffin Cup 2015 champions’
