Last night I earned the right to put 'award-winning' in front of my bio, after winning 'Best Use of Technology' at hospitality industry Oscars, The Catey Awards 2016.

The presenter, Claudia Winkleman, read this from the judges, "This clever use of disruptive leading-edge technology empowered the customer to be the integral part of the booking process. The solution would challenge the rest of the [restaurant] industry to sit up and take note."
