The attendees, sponsors and winners of BNC Publishing’s Leaders in F&B Awards offer their feedback on the inaugural event, which welcomed more than 400 F&B professionals to Westin Dubai Mina Seyahi on Wednesday 9 November, to celebrate excellence and innovation in the Middle East’s restaurant, bar and catering sector.

  1. nola“For a first time event, in my opinion they exceeded and outdid the others. Job well done! I also liked their choice of location and the food and service was good”
  2. “The selection of the venue was done very professionally and carefully. It was more interesting that the industry experts were voting instead of an online open voting system where everyone can vote multiple times and more subjectively”
 Majed Al Alawi, Group PR & Marketing Manager,  Mythos, Nola & The Music Room

 

 

 

pulsar“We have been to other award shows recently where the room got emptier as the night progressed, which is a shame for those receiving awards in the second half of the event. At Leaders in F&B Awards, everyone was there until the end and beyond. Credit to the team for keeping the party atmosphere going.”
Ross Hassard, Brand Manager, The Gourmet Olive Market.
“Everyone from the Pulsar Foodstuff team had a fantastic night at the F&B Leaders Awards. We had the opportunity to catch up with friends from the industry and managed to find a number of new leads!”
Stephen Bennett, General Manager, Pulsar Foodstuff

rad-blu “We think that the awards night was awesome. Being one of the oldest hotels in the GCC and having 16 F&B outlets we attend plenty of similar events in Dubai. So far F&B Leaders one was best organised in terms of timing, atmosphere and location. Straight to the point, very clear and quick. We were pleased to see a full house of our colleagues and the fact that everyone stayed till the very end. The food was delicious and the menu inclusive of vegetarian options. The dessert was to die for! Well done guys!”
Inna Gernega, PR Manager, Radisson Blu Hotel Dubai Deira Creek

 “Catering News’ Leaders in F&B Awards was a wonder celebration of the key players in the UAE’s vibrant and ever-evolving food and beverage scene. It was great to be able to get together under one roof to toast and share the successes of not just our business but with those behind some of best restaurants and bars here in Dubai.”
Dannii Gardiner, Communications Officer, Bull&Roo

 

 

 

 

 

 

tssc“It was a surprise to us and it is very nice to be finally recognised for all our hard work. We never really get feedback in our industry because everyone forgets the long hours we put in to make sure their restaurant opens on time despite the delay in handing over the kitchen and bar areas for us to start our work. Not to mention, many of the nice innovative products we represent took hard work to locate and get on board. People only remember things like their microwave did not work the first night of opening!”
Rashid Bahar, Business Development Manager, TSSC Dubai

“ Now, this was one classy event. The Leaders in F&B Awards 2016 was one rocking, uber-cool Party. It was handled brilliantly, end to end. The atmosphere was electric with the crème de la crème of the Region’s F&B giants gathered under the chandeliers. And the best thing was: the momentum kept on going, right till the very end. Overall, it was a great networking opportunity for all sponsors as well. Heartiest congratulations to the BNC Team on such a fantastic Awards ceremony. Truly the Oscar of the F&B Industry!
Shankar Sharma, Caffe di Artisan
