One of the top venues has just been open for a matter of weeks but could in line for a popular prize.

The British Kebab Awards in association with Just Eat recognise and champion the efforts of local kebab takeaways and restaurants across the nation.

Meram Kitchen in Christchurch has been nominated in the best newcomer of the year award.

The restaurant, which opened earlier this month promising fresh Turkish food, was launched by father, Erhan Kircal, and his two sons Eren and Veli.

“Our focus is barbecue based, grill-based food,” Erhan said.

“But this is not a gas grill, its real barbecue, charcoal grill, freshly made every day in the premises, marinated freshly every day, served with hot and cold meze.”

The second Dorset restaurant to be nominated is Jerry’s in West Street, Blandford.

The venue has been nominated in the Just Eat Best Delivery category.

The takeaway offers a full range of kebabs and wraps for customers.

Past attendees of the awards include politicians such as Nadhim Zahawi, Sadiq Khan, Angela Rayner, Brandon Lewis, Ed Davey, James O’Brien, Jeremy Corbyn and many more famous faces across Westminster.

Ibrahim Dogus, the founder of the British Kebab Awards, said: “As we recover from the pandemic and navigate life beyond Brexit, we need the kebab industry like never before.

“Throughout the pandemic, kebab businesses have tried hard to continue to provide a good service to their communities. the kebab industry, despite all the difficulties and challenges it faces, has continued to grow from strength to strength.

“The 11th British Kebab Awards will be even bigger and better than the last one.”
