The R200 Dinner and Awards are held every year to honour the best and brightest in hospitality, celebrating the key achievements in the UK restaurant industry over the past year. This year’s awards and dinner were held at D3 Collective’s Idalia restaurant in Olympia, London.
This year, Leon Restaurants CEO John Vincent scooped the prestigious Person of the Year Award sponsored by Poppleston Allen.
The award recognises outstanding achievement and innovation in the hospitality sector. Vincent was honoured for regaining control of Leon and subsequently setting out a plan to revitalise the group, bringing back much-loved dishes whilst placing a renewed focus on innovation.
Poppleston Allen, a leading legal firm specialising in licensing for the hospitality sector, was a proud sponsor of the award. Their support for the R200 Awards highlights their commitment to honouring hospitality leaders who set the benchmark in the hospitality field.
