Honest question, is there anything on property you like? I saw your C rating for Tiffins and was shocked by that. Nothing was mediocre to poor about my food or service.
1) Certainly, there are eateries we like.
. . . there are also eateries at which we were disappointed
. . . there are a few eateries we even recommend people not visit (but, just a very few)
. . . even at low-rated eateries, there might be dishes we enjoyed and would recommend to others
2)
When rating anything, one must be consistent and use a standard, or the rating(s) mean nothing. *
3) I frequently get an email saying my "C" rating should have been an "A".
4) But, when people do a rating, such as a "A", I need to ask for their standard.
. . . are they comparing restaurants equally?
. . . are they using bias or their "Disney Enthusiasm" and giving extra points because of such?
5) As an example, few people could argue against an "A" for service and an "A" for food quality at Victoria & Albert's.
. . . thus, should Tiffins get an "A" for service or quality?
. . . if it gets a "B", where would one place service and quality of California Grill compared to V&A or Tiffins?
6) Once again, one needs to rate everything to a standard.
. . . If one gives Tiffins an "A", a reader might believe the individual rating item (service, quality, etc) would rival V&A.
. . . If one based their dining selection based upon that rating, one would be disappointed if expecting V&A levels
7) So, using such a rating standard, where should Tiffins be placed?
. . . was Tiffins service equal-to or superior-to V&A?
. . . was Tiffins food equal-to or superior-to V&A?
. . . was Tiffins seating comfort equal-to or superior-to V&A?
8)
Trying to remain consistent and objective can be tough, and often creates differing opinions.
* Not quite in the same realm, but this is a major complaint of school systems and why people try to build a uniform standard. How can someone determine the level of learning if different school systems and/or different teachers use different grading/rating standards?
