For 15 years Michael Winner has been reviewing restaurants in the Sunday Times. His column remains the most read and most controversial and is a shining star of original comments. Here he has drawn on those reviews, updating many of them, and including other hotels and restaurants which he has never written about in the paper. Some 400 restaurants and hotels are listed in the United Kingdom and abroad. Written in his own inimitable style and presenting facts on food, service, and ambience, always in the outrageously subjective manner that we've come to know and love, Winner's Dinners is not only witty, controversial, and bitingly truthful, it will also give any reader the confidence to visit a previously untried restaurant and know that they will enjoy a good meal.

Winner's Dinners: The Restaurant and Hotel Guide

Humor

Michael Winner's new book Unbelievable! is packed with fascinating tales of the bizarre and hilarious experiences he's had in hotels and restaurants, where he dines with the hoi poloi (as well as some very famous people), during his extensive travels. Winner's stories incorporate his many visits to various locations overseas, including some of the most luxurious places in the world. But perhaps most importantly, he also includes lots of marvellous places in Great Britain, including some of those featured in his ITV series Michael Winner's Dining Stars. As well as giving an invaluable commentary on the restaurants and hotels that he visits, he also awards another series of his unique, self-styled Winner Awards for the best and the worst eateries - and tells us why he thinks they deserve them. The book also updates readers on the more recent restaurants and hotels that he's visited since last year's excellent dining guide, Winner's Dinners. Outrageous, truthful and funny but always in Michael Winner's own unique style, this is an entertaining read as well as a superb guide to dining out.
