HOW TO WIN
A
RESTAURANT

 

 

The Restaurant is a brand new television event for BBC2 in 2007. It will feature nine couples whose dream is to! run their own eatery. They have to create their perfect restaurant and then open the doors to the paying public. Top chef and restaurateur Raymond Blanc will put the nine couples through their paces to see if they have what it takes to run their own restaurant.

Each week, one of the restaurants is eliminated from the competition by top restaurateur, Raymond Blanc, acting as judge. At the end of the run, the winners get to run their own restaurant, financially backed and personally supported by Raymond with a six-figure sum of his own money.

We are looking for people who are passionate about food and the catering industry, especially the ethnic sector but who perhaps haven't had the opportunity or finances to set up their own restaurant. As for the demographic of our 9 couples, we want to accurately represent the UK; regionally, socially, ethnically and through culinary specialities. So for this reason it would be great if people applied who weren't just interested in producing standard British pub food.
