System
The judging system is designed to mimic the dining experience of customers, focusing on the areas that make a difference to guests. The system ranks more than 50 individual criteria which span the entire dining experience, from booking through to service and beyond.
Process
The judging process includes a consumer preference survey which is used to moderate the raw data produced by the team of judges. Using this analysis as a guide, entrants can look at specific areas of the business where they excel and other areas that could benefit from further development.
Feedback
2007 saw the successful introduction of the statistical feedback process to all entrants in both the restaurant and catering sectors. Awards participants applauded the usefulness of this business development tool and appreciated the judges assessment feedback.
