How are AA rosettes awarded?
On the AA rated trips website, it states: "AA Rosettes are awarded by our team of inspectors, who have an unrivalled wealth of experience in assessing culinary excellence.
"Restaurants with 3 Rosettes have achieved culinary standards that demand national recognition well beyond their local area.
"The cooking will be underpinned by the selection and sympathetic treatment of the highest quality ingredients.
"Timing, seasoning and the judgment of flavor combinations will be consistently excellent.
"These virtues will tend to be supported by other elements such as intuitive service and a well-chosen wine list."
