The World's Best Fork rating · Restaurant standard

How this record is prepared

Quince is considered as one complete table: cooking, identity, hospitality, place and the current record that supports the published account.

01

Three principles

  1. 01

    A voice of its own

    The cooking must express a recognisable point of view rather than repeat prestige, trend or inherited reputation.

  2. 02

    The complete table

    Food, service, beverage, room and rhythm are read together. One exceptional plate cannot carry an incomplete experience.

  3. 03

    Current evidence

    The public record rests on attributable facts and independent editorial judgement appropriate to the restaurant as it operates now.

02

Four connected views
