If you happen to have a free evening, it’s always a judgement call in terms of how you’re going to spend it.
Some people prefer a quiet night in, others might fancy a trip to the pub or cinema but if you happen to like fine dining, The Good Food Guide have just the thing for you.
For the first time in five years, there’s a new ‘number one restaurant’ in the UK and that accolade goes to Restaurant Nathan Outlaw in Cornwall.
The Good Food Guide ranks 1,235 restaurants and food outlets based on anonymous inspections.
Given the fact that they’re an authority in the area, The Good Food Guide have also revealed the biggest issue/complaint that the public have with restaurants in the UK.
As reported by The Guardian, ‘unprecedented’ numbers of people have stated their belief that restaurants in the UK are getting noisier.
Ok, we’re not talking about chatter or babies crying, but rather music being played “at Glastonbury force” in restaurants while people are dining.
The report states that a large segment of the public have complained about excessively loud sound levels which detract from the overall dining experience.
The guide’s editor, Elizabeth Carter, said: “Restaurants are getting noisier – that’s what our readers, this year in unprecedented numbers, are telling us. Noise levels, already amplified by bare-bones design, are being raised by music played at Glastonbury force. Everyone loves a restaurant that has a buzzing, vibrant atmosphere, but it becomes exhausting and self-defeating when, as one old hand told us: ‘It was so loud that I couldn’t hear a word the waitress was saying, and vice versa. We had to gesture and point.’”
