Curry Capital of Britain 2011

Wolverhampton is Curry Capital of the Midlands 2011

Wolverhampton again came third in the Curry Capital competition beating Birmingham into 7th place and Leicester, 5th, to be the highest placed city in the Midlands.

National Curry Week organiser Peter Grove said: “In most other years the performance by Kim Gilmour and the Wolverhampton team would have won the title easily.  They held a great launch event, voted in a good team and built up a huge body of support..."

Seventeen cities and boroughs were in the competition this year, with Bradford coming first and Glasgow second, a reverse of last year's result.

WV One, the city centre company, would like to say a big "Thank You" to Team Wolverhampton - Anise, Bilash, Cafe Rickshaw, and Massalla Club - for all their wonderful work.
