The 2025 competition sees the introduction of a brand-new category, Perfect Pizza. This new category adds to last year’s addition of Best Dessert.
Between 2 May and 15 June, patrons are encouraged to visit participating club eateries — of which there are 200 — to taste the Perfect Plate dish/es on offer and score them out of five by scanning each eatery’s unique QR code or filling out a simple paper voting form.
While diners can only vote for each Perfect Plate dish once, they are encouraged to taste as many competition dishes at as many clubs as possible to boost their chances of winning a prize.
A $100 voucher will be drawn each day of the competition, and the two diners who vote for the most Perfect Plate dishes will win a ‘Foodie Escape’ for two valued at up to $3,500.
The NRMA has come on board as the presenting partner of the 2025 Your Local Club Perfect Plate Awards, with My NRMA members to receive 10 per cent cash back into their My NRMA app upon purchasing their first Perfect Plate dish, and two per cent cash back for purchases thereafter.
The 13 clubs that receive the highest average score for their dishes based on patron ratings will be crowned the winners of their respective regions. There will also be three state-wide winners announced in the small, medium and large club categories; as well as one state-wide winner in the Perfect Pizza category and one for Best Dessert.
