Following their nomination for Best Lebanese restaurant in the UK, Richard visited Layalina on Billericay High Street. Layalina has made the final dozen restaurants in the prestigious 2025 British Kebab Awards in Westminster on Wednesday 26th February 2025.
The well-regarded local restaurant, which was refurbished last year, has already won the Best Essex Restaurant in the 2024 Muddy Stilettos Award.
Richard urged local Billericay residents to vote for the local restaurant in the category. Voting closes on 15th February, and residents can vote for Layalina using the following link: https://voting.britishkebabawards.co.uk/layalina-billericay.
The Rt Hon Richard Holden MP said:
“I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and lunch at Layalina. It’s a clear choice for me that they should win Best Lebanese at the Kebab Awards. Billericay High Street has so much to offer, and I think it’s fantastic for the local economy to have such a strong representation of Lebanese food outside of London here in our community. I strongly recommend to all to pop by for lunch or dinner and see their first-class quality for themselves and to vote for them in the British Kebab Awards!”
