What are the Rules of the Awards Voting Process?
For the first round of public voting, a shortlist of restaurants across all 2019 award category regions and cities were selected by a panel of independent Italian food & beverage experts including renowned critics, award winning writers and exhibition judges. Key assessment criteria included the quality of ingredients, recipe innovation, contemporary Italian cooking techniques, dish presentation and wine pairing selection.
Each of these locations enter a local online public vote for the chance to secure the proud status of winning their regional award category. The top two seeded restaurants for each of the regions then enter the last round of the competition with a place at the final awards ceremony in Dublin on November 19th. The winning regional restaurants are announced at the award ceremony as well as the national prize of one location being crowned the Best Contemporary Restaurant in Italy for 2019 which is decided by a final online public vote for all ceremony final nominees.
