Nice to see some well deserved honors on that list Rita. On the other hand a few of them.. well errr... WTF, or perhaps a touch of nepotism?

Great to see Ebb get a gong.

You must be very proud Rita

I WAS very excited for them at Ebb, Anon 7.56 - it was much deserved, and has visibly demonstrated to them that they aren't operating in some backwater where no one cares about their food, or acknowledges it.

Ebb's gong is VERY much deserved. But as others have said = WTF to some of the others...where is Montys on that list?

You have to be a member to be eligiable for an award. I'm guessing any places that aren't on the list aren't members.
