Gino D'Acampo bags Individual Food and Beverage Offer of the Year
SSP celebrates win for Gino D’Acampo – My Restaurant at London Euston.
Gino D’Acampo – My Restaurant was named individual food and beverage offer of the year in a railway station at this year’s Moodie Davitt Airport Food & Beverage (FAB) awards. The 150-cover restaurant and cocktail bar offers travellers and locals alike the chance for a ‘proper taste of Italy’ in a modern setting away from the hubbub of the main station.
Gino D’Acampo said, “Bringing My Restaurant to a rail station was an exciting new departure for me, and I’m delighted that this lovely venue has been recognised by experts who really know all about food and beverage in stations and airports.”
Commercial Director of Retail at Network Rail Property Hamish Kiernan said, “Network Rail stations are no longer places where people only come to travel; they are destinations in their own right and our excellent retail offer means more people are coming to our stations to shop, meet and eat. This prestigious award reinforces the quality of our food and beverage offer and we are exceptionally proud that fantastic dining experiences, such as that found at Gino D’Acampo – My Restaurant, have found their home in our stations.”
In addition to this award, SSP also took home another two major international accolades, five regional awards and two highly-commended awards at the prestigious industry event in Toronto. Lift Bar & Grill, Vancouver International Airport, was named airport upscale dining restaurant of the year and the FAB dining transformation award for rail stations went to Travel Food Services for Raildhaba at Visakhapatnam (Vizag) railway station.
