Scoring System

After deciding we needed a scoring system for the caesar salad reviews, we had an in-depth brain storm, and after much toing and froing we came up with the following somewhat arbitrary scoring system:

	Taste, being the most important factor will be given the biggest weight in the score. Taste will be scored out of 4.
	Ingredients are also important. If something is missing, or added inappropriately then expect a lower score. Ingredients will be scored out of 3.
	We believe a meal has to look appetising. Presentation will be scored out of 1.
	A meal can be great, but if the service sucks it detracts from the whole experience. Service will be scored out of 1.
	Good food is one thing, but we want it to be reasonably priced. Value for money will be scored out of 1.

Oh would you look at that - the maximum score is a convenient 10. It makes things nice and easy. We debated having a different total as it was initially difficult to fit the weighted scores we wanted into 10, but in the end we settled with what you see above.

Having said that, we have also allowed for the holy grail of gluten-free caesar salads:

1 bonus point will be given if ever gluten-free croutons are on offer.

The theoretical maximum is therefore 11. If a caesar salad achieves that score, then it will truly be the emperor of all salads.
