New sponsor and venue for Eat Out awards

Aileen Lamb, GM of Eat Out, said: "We are thrilled to announce that Mercedes-Benz South Africa has decided to join us this year as the title sponsor for the Eat Out Mercedes-Benz Restaurant Awards. We value our new partnership with this world-class brand and look forward to hosting the most impressive awards event yet."

The restaurant awards, which acknowledge South Africa's top chefs and restaurants, will be held on Sunday, 16 November, 2014, at Thunder City at the Cape Town International Airport. The larger venue has been chosen to meet the consistently growing demand for tickets and to allow for even more innovation in terms of staging the event. The 2013 awards accommodated 500 guests, but this year's new venue will allow more industry players, celebrities and members of the public to attend. The affair is renowned for its multiple-course dinner showcase, prepared by award-winning chefs and paired with the country's best wines.

Tickets will be available via Webtickets. Bookings open on 20 August, 2014. For enquiries, contact Julie Potgieter at az.oc.stneveaidemwen@eiluj. Go to www.eatout.co.za for more information, follow @Eat_Out on Twitter and like the Eat Out Facebook page at www.facebook.com/EatOutMag.
