Le Café Anglais Scoops Top Prizes at "London Restaurant Awards".
 Rowley Leigh and his team at Le Café Anglais were thrilled to win two of the most prestigious awards at this year's revamped London Restaurant Awards at the Grosvenor House in Park Lane, London.
Accepting the accolade of ‘New Restaurant of the Year', Leigh admits that the competition was fierce from other contenders such as Acorn House, Cha Cha Moon (coming soon to Whiteleys), Great Queen Street, Hibiscus, and Scott's, but he is proud of what the team at Le Café Anglais has achieved in a very short time.
The second award - ‘aAIM London Restaurant of the Year' - is the icing on the cake and the top award of the event, crowning Le Café Anglais as the best among all the winners of the evening.
 Fay Maschler, Evening Standard restaurant critic and head of the judging panel, described Le Café Anglais in glowing terms: "A restaurant like this comes along once in a lifetime. Luckily it's Rowley Leigh's lifetime we're talking about. A gifted, well-read, well-fed chef, still with a lot of tread on his tires, Rowley has here achieved his ambition of defining through food and drink the word convivial."
Another judge, Matthew Norman of The Guardian, also had high praise: "Rowley Leigh didn't so much hit the ground running as sprinting on steroids with a restaurant that brilliantly combined the engaging bustle of a grand Parisian brasserie with the best and most versatile menu in town."
