(23-29 November)

The excitement is building for yet another National Curry/Eating Out Week as catering bodies all over the country decide how they will contribute.

A Best Western Hotel in Blackpool is making a determined attempt at the World Poppadum Tower Record and Radio Chester is challenging all Indian restaurants in their area to take up the challenge and raise money for Oxfam. Tolworth Girls School in Surrey are joining in the fun by having a special curry meal in their canteen and holding a "mufti day" to raise money.

Make sure your restaurant or catering establishment is part of the week.
