House of Tides shortlisted for Craft Guild of Chefs’ Annual Award

Newcastle restaurant, House of Tides, joins three top London restaurants on the 2015 Craft Guild Chefs New Restaurant of the Year awards shortlist. 

• Is Newcastle the North's most 'restauranty' city?
• How many years had it been since Newcastle last had a Michelin star?

Kenny Atkinson’s restaurant joins the list, alongside Jason Atherton’s City Social, Nuno Mendes’ Chiltern Firehouse and Lee Westcott’s The Typing Room. Lee will be showcasing local British produce and seasonal ingredients in his restaurant ahead of the judging.

The restaurants will be judged by a panel from the Craft Guild of Chefs, as they visit the venues over the next few weeks. The winner will be announced at the Craft Guild of Chefs awards ceremony on Monday, June 15, 2015 at the Hilton Park Lane. 16 other highly contended awards will take place at the ceremony.

The  Craft Guild of Chefs New Restaurant of the Year Award has been looking for a restaurant that has made a great impact on the restaurant scene in the local area and in general. The awarded restaurant will be one that offers a high standard of service, with fresh, new ideas. All nominated restaurants will have been in business since January, 2014. Last year, Michelin-starred Indian restaurant, Gymkhana in London’s Mayfair, won the prestigious award.
