City Social, Murano and Carters of Moseley join shortlist for Menu Catey
London Michelin-starred restaurants City Social and Murano, and The Good Food Guide's UK Readers' Restaurant of the Year for 2015, Carters of Moseley in Birmingham, have been shortlisted for The Caterer's Menu of the Year Catey award 2015, sponsored by Quorn.
The three restaurants join Chiltern Firehouse and Sushishamba, both in London, and Ynyshir Hall in Machynlleth, Wales, on the overall shortlist for the coveted award.
Establishments are selected quarterly from all the menus featured on the Menuwatch pages of the Chef section of The Caterer over the previous three months.
The full shortlist of 12 menus will be judged in May and a final shortlist of four restaurants released ahead of the annual Catey awards in July when the ultimate winner will be announced.
The menus are judged on innovation within the price bracket of that particular establishment or contract; good use of seasonal produce on the menu; creativity of the dishes being served; careful marrying of textures and flavours of the component ingredients; value for money; and, seeing the menu or selection of dishes, would the judges be tempted to eat there.
The first six menus to be shortlisted, which featured in The Caterer from May to October are:
• Murano
