Food to Die For -- Which Restaurants Could Make You Sick?
E-coli, salmonella, nasty little parasites. Could you catch a fatal foodborne illness just by dining out at a dirty restaurant? Would you like to know which ones might be dangerous to your health BEFORE you walk in the door? One worldwide dining guide, SavvyDining.com, includes restaurant cleanliness as a separate criterion in its unique no-frills rating system.
Savvy travelers and diners finally have a concise online resource to help them decide which restaurants to try and which to avoid in their travels or in their hometowns, based on six clear criteria, including cleanliness.
Visitors to SavvyDining.com will find simple, no-frills ratings on over 40,000 restaurants all around the world submitted by an ever-growing undercover army of savvy diners who call themselves "Restaurant Police."
"We believe we're the only global restaurant guide that rates cleanliness as a separate criterion," according to the senior editor of the site, "and frankly, we were surprised that no other dining guide focused any attention on that, since it's probably the single most important factor for health-conscious travelers."
In addition to cleanliness, the criteria used on the site include food, service, atmosphere, hospitality (customer-friendliness) and value (bang for the buck), each of which is graded with an A, B, C, D or F. These six grades give visitors a concise and yet comprehensive snapshot of what they can expect at each rated restaurant.
The restaurants and their ratings are organized geographically and presented in a large "no-squint" font for quick navigation and easy legibility.
Travelers who use the site once will find it invaluable for trip-planning. Restaurant owners are welcome to use the ratings as a source of ongoing customer feedback and tourist-related businesses may advertise on the site, as well.
