Lough Erne Serves Up a Winning Dinner

As part of the Year of Food and Drink, the Northern Ireland Hotels Federation hosted a competition to find the best hotel restaurant in Northern Ireland. On November 28th 2016, some of Northern Ireland’s leading hotels gathered in the Galgorm Resort & Spa where the prestigious accolade of ‘Hotel Restaurant of the Year 2016’, sponsored by Stephens Catering Equipment, was awarded to Lough Erne Resort. The judges described the dining experience as “a faultless evening with local ingredients taking centre stage.” Guests were treated to a fine dining menu with wines from J.E.McCabes. Support was also provided by the Food Standards Agency, Flogas, and Henderson Foodservice. Lough Erne also secured the Best Main Course category and the Best Service awards on the night, with Chefs Andrew McKee and Lee Brunt emerging as worthy winners. The Best Dessert category, supported by the FSA, was won by Corick House Hotel and Spa who produced the ‘perfect dessert’ using a selection of local ingredients from a mystery basket selection.
