Incase you are wondering why there’s a picture of gold, silver and bronze pineapples and not a tartan spoon, well a pineapple is the International Symbol of Hospitality, I love pineapples and there is no better than receiving a gold, silver and bronze award all rolled into one… but back to the TARTAN SPOON AWARDS which are equivalent of 10/10. Awarded when service, food and ambience are outstanding.
