We are delighted to announce the winners of the 2016 Legacy of Taste Chinese Restaurant Awards from our recent ceremony on March 10th, held at The Grand Imperial restaurant at London’s Grosvenor Hotel.
For the ninth year we once again invited members of the public to nominate their favourite restaurants and our esteemed judging panel travelled the land visiting the good, the great and the very best.

The only awards purely dedicated to the celebration and recognition of Chinese restaurants, the Legacy of Taste awards were started in 2008 to support and protect the heritage of Chinese cooking in the UK and raise the profile of the very best Chinese Restaurants.

The Legacy of Taste now tracks just over 4000 restaurants in the UK alone and each year we receive hundreds of Pagoda nominations from Chinese food loving consumers. Through these awards we hope we can continue to recognise and support individual businesses, to challenge misconceptions and promote the wonders of Chinese cuisine.
