The Oystermen, Master Wei and Jamie Oliver all win in the OFM awards 2019

The Oystermen, Master Wei and Jamie Oliver all win in the OFM awards 2019 

Always one of the better food awards that happen at the tail end of the year, tonight was the turn of the Observer Food Monthly awards. 

As ever, they're awards which try to spread the love around the whole country, with Bank Tavern in Bristol the best place for a Sunday Lunch, 288 Bar and Wok being a great restaurant for cheap eats and Danny Wallace, working for Gary Usher's Kala in Manchester gets Young Chef of the Year award. 

But London does get two biggies. First off is Master Wei in Bloomsbury, the restaurant from the chef behind popular Chinese restaurant Xi'an Impression gets best newcomer. And winning the coveted prize of best restaurant are the excellent Oystermen in Covent Garden - a well-deserved award, for sure. 

It's also good news for Jamie Oliver who, after an undoubtedly challenging year, once again brings home the Best food personality award.
