Faversham restaurant to donate cash for each meal sold
The Prince of India restaurant in Faversham, Kent is to donate 50p
for each main dish sold in support of 'National Curry Week', from
22nd to 28th November
Over the past ten years, National Curry Week has raised money for
charities such as Action Against Hunger and Oxfam. New for 2009 is
the creation of The Curry Tree Charitable Fund targeting the 23
million people eating-out market to raise funds for deserving causes
around the world.
"It's good for those of us who work in the catering world to be
reminded of those who go hungry," said Prince of India owner Raj
Abdin, adding, "This is a practical way where we and our
suppliers can help make a small contribution to those less well off."
The move comes in the wake of Prince of India nominated for two
prestigious awards. First it has been announced as a 'Local Food
Hero' by the Market Garden TV programme on the Good Food Channel, for
championing local produce and commitment to the community. Now it is
a front-runner 'as Best Indian' category in the 'Kent Restaurant
Awards', where Kent residents vote online for their favourite dining
establishment at www.KentRestaurantAwards.co.uk
