Types Of Restaurant
Restaurants fall into several industry classifications, based upon menu style, preparation methods and pricing, as well as the means by which the food is served to the customer. This article mainly describes the situation in the US, while categorisation differs widely around the world. Origin of categories Historically, ''restaurant'' referred only to places that provided tables where one ate while seated, typically served by a waiter. Following the rise of fast food and take-out restaurants, a retronym for the older "standard" restaurant was created, sit-down restaurant. Most commonly, "sit-down restaurant" refers to a casual-dining restaurant with table service, rather than a fast food restaurant or a diner, where one orders food at a countertop, counter. Sit-down restaurants are often further categorized, in North America, as "family-style" or "Full course dinner, formal". In British English, the term ''restaurant'' almost always means an eating establishment with table serv ...

The Georgian cities of the British Isles were Edinburgh, Bath, Somerset, Bath, pre-independence Georgian Dublin, Dublin, and London, and to a lesser extent York and Bristol.

List Of Michelin Starred Restaurants In Ireland
The ''Michelin Guide'' has been published for the island of Ireland since 1974. The Michelin Guides have been published by the French tire company Michelin since 1900. They were designed as a guide to tell drivers about eateries they recommended to visit and to subtly sponsor their tires, by encouraging drivers to use their cars more and therefore need to replace the tires as they wore out. Over time, the stars that were given out started to become more valuable. Multiple anonymous Michelin inspectors visit the restaurants several times. They rate the restaurants on five criteria: "quality of products", "mastery of flavor and cooking techniques", "the personality of the chef represented in the dining experience", "value for money", and "consistency between inspectors' visits". Inspectors have at least ten years of expertise and create a list of popular restaurants supported by media reports, reviews, and diner popularity. If they reach a consensus, Michelin awards restaurants fr ...
