Over the next six to eight months, we will be visiting and reviewing participating restaurants to find out who truly stands out. A panel of anonymous, undercover judges will evaluate each establishment based on food quality, service, ambiance, and overall dining experience. The best part? Every restaurant that enters will be featured in a dedicated monthly column in the publication, giving you valuable exposure and publicity!
How It Works

Secret Judges Visit – Throughout the next six months, our panel of anonymous judges will visit each participating restaurant unannounced to experience your food and service first-hand.
Monthly Features – Each month, we will highlight a selection of restaurants in Picky View, showcasing their strengths, any special dishes, and overall impressions from the judges.
The Grand Finale – At the end of the competition, the restaurant with the highest overall judges score will be crowned Hoedspruit’s Best Restaurant, receiving a prestigious trophy and certificate (valid for a year) to celebrate their achievement! The judge’s decision is final.
