It’s this time of the year again where we have to make THE CHOICE.
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.
And that is why, Our Awesome Planet and our group of foodies, 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 The Choice 2015 survey;
here’s a look back at our inaugural awards held at the SMX Mall of Asia in August of 2015:
