LONDON (28 June): National Geographic Traveller Food (UK) has capped a strong 12 months by winning the Best Food Magazine or Section title at this year鈥檚 Guild of Food Writers Awards.

The special-issue series, which launched three years ago, was named the UK鈥檚 top food publication at Wednesday鈥檚 virtual ceremony, prevailing in a competitive shortlist.

Editor Glen Mutel said: 鈥淲inning any award is pleasing, but it feels particularly sweet to win one after such a tricky year or so, during which, like many others, we鈥檝e had to produce several magazines from home while grappling with the logistics of producing food-based travel content during a pandemic.

鈥淒uring this period, deputy editor Nicola Trup and I, along with the team, have worked hard to stay relevant; to continue to make our readers hungry; to showcase food as a driver of travel; and to emphasise food鈥檚 global nature and the importance of understanding what it means to other cultures besides one鈥檚 own.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a great time to be working for a food publication. The competition is so strong, whether it鈥檚 from newspapers, recipe-based titles, newsletters, dedicated websites or indie magazines. So, to find ourselves at the top of the tree 鈥� even for just this moment 鈥� is exceptionally satisfying.鈥�

The award caps an important period for the publication. Last summer, it launched on newsstands, having previously been available as part of a bundle with sister magazine National Geographic Traveller (UK). Then, in January 2021, editor Glen Mutel received a Highly Commended in the Editor of the Year – Food & Drink category at the British Society of Magazine Awards for the second year in succession.
