Every month, every week, and almost every day it seems,
there's a new restaurant opening in Metro Manila. There are a lot of great new
dining choices, side by side with the perennials, the classics that we grew up
with.
As food bloggers, writers, and members of the F&B
industry, we're always very curious about the crowd favorites.
The popular vote, if you will.
So, Our Awesome Planet and the Blogger Collective known as
the KTG (Kain Tulog Gang), and World Food Expo (WOFEX) have partnered to
conduct the one and only People's Choice Awards for their Favorite Food,
Restaurants, Bars, and more~ or simply, "The Choice".
About The Choice Awards
We conducted an intense first round of voting among
ourselves, and our resulting finalists have made us very pleased: we feel it's a very diverse and fair
representation of all our Metro Manila favorites. The categories are very
broad, as they should be in a democratic vote.
However, we'd like to emphasize that this is NOT a
"Best of..." list. Our good friends and respected colleagues from The
MBKRS are doing an excellent job of recognizing the restaurants and
restaurateurs in their prestigious bi-annual awards.
The MBKRS are rightly regarded as the Oscars of our ever
growing foodie community. So we'd like "The Choice" to be the Golden
Globes~ a bit more irreverent, surely less formal, and yes, it ought to be
greatly biased. After all, YOU will be voting for your favorites, this is YOUR
CHOICE!!!
We had a total of 2,075 respondents during the inaugural TheChoice 2015 survey;
here's a look back at our inaugural awards held at the SMX
Mall of Asia in August of 2015:
The Survey Parameters
1. For the Favorite New Restaurant category, our coverage
period includes restaurants that opened between June 1, 2015 to July 31, 2016.
2. There are 50 questions in this survey and answering this
survey should take around 5-10 minutes. It is best to give a definitive answer
on each question and feel free to skip if you can't decide.
3. All answers are treated confidential and final once you
click on the submit button. One survey response for one person only.
4. Please give us your name and email address for our random
validation of the survey responses.
5. For the Favorite Out-of-Town Destination category, we now
changed it to have a more detailed Favorite Restaurant Category for each foodie
destination.
The Choice 2016 Voting is open for 2 weeks starting from August 15 and ends on August 31, 2016 at exactly 12 midnight.
The Choice Restaurant Awarding will happen on September 17, Saturday during the Ultimate Taste Test 2016!
