About My Restaurant Rocks
Each week, My Restaurant Rocks sees 5 restaurants going head to head in a battle to be the best in their local region. Each eatery takes it in turns to host their competitors, serving them a 3 course dinner of first-class food. The challenge: to present not only the most magnificent meal, but the perfect package along with it.
Each day, one restaurants food and drink is rated by their rivals - along with everything else from the kitchen drawer to the toilet facilities. The guests award points on a scale of 1 to 10 for taste, atmosphere, interior design, and service - in essence, each restaurants entire concept.
Then, at the end of the evening, the host presents the bill - which has the potential to turn the tables, since value for money is also taken into account. The restaurant owner with the highest score at the end of the week wins a cash prize!
