Brick
Lane Curry Festival sponsored by Cobra, returns even bigger, better
and tastier than before in 2009, spicing up Europe's self-styled
Curry Capital once again, as it pays homage to the nation's favourite
dish - the curry! Launching on Sunday 27th September 2009, the free
to attend two-week festival will comprise a hearty celebration of
exotic food, culture and the full flavours of the East, running until
Saturday 10th October 2009.
Brick Lane Curry Festival is
renowned as one of UK's biggest and most exciting cross cultural
street parties. The launch event on 27th September will take shape as
a buzzing street festival of sumptuous cuisine and al fresco dining;
eclectic music, dance and street art performances; stalls providing
unique Bangladeshi snacks and sweets; and ushers in traditional
Indian costumes, snake charmers and chanachur walas (traditional
snack sellers) entertaining visitors.
For the days following the lively
street gastronomic extravaganza until Saturday 10th October,
restaurants along the entire length of Brick Lane will provide
festive menus, special offers and live entertainment.
Ahead of the Launch event,
Wednesday 23rd September will witness the Best Curry Competition,
when the Restaurant of the Year: Brick Lane '09 will be selected by
way of the biggest public curry cook-off Europe has ever seen! The
winner will be selected by a panel of four judges, comprising a
well-known celebrity, MP, high profile dignitary and a specially
selected member of the public.
