Choijin Temple shared its Golden Compass recognition in December 2017. A photograph of the certificate named the restaurant the 2017 Best Eatery winner at the Mongolian Tourism Awards, while the accompanying Facebook caption credited the Mongolian Tourism Association.
Recognising Choijin Temple
The certificate photograph was published on December 28. A further announcement on December 31 described the recognition as the Golden Compass award for Best Restaurant.
These posts refer to the same award. “Best Eatery” is the category printed on the certificate; “Best Restaurant” is the wording used in the later caption.
