British Kebab Awards 2020: Winners Revealed

The wait is finally over, kebab fans – the British Kebab Awards have revealed their winners for 2020. But who have been crowned the dons of doners? The princesses of pitta? The granddaddies of garlic sauce?

The winners were announced at a glitzy awards ceremony in the ballroom of the Park Plaza Westminster Bridge Hotel, where attendees – including Mayor of London Sadiq Khan and Labour Party Leader Jeremy Corbyn – were treated to a feast of Turkish cuisine and cocktails.

The finalists were nominated by thousands of members of the UK public, who eat a whopping 1.3 million kebabs every day.
