Award Winning Business Losing

There's a yum-cha restaurant nearby that proudly displays the sign "2010 Small Business Champion Awards - Winner". 

Now I'm sure that's not to be sneezed at and they're no doubt rightly pleased about it but it actually discourages me from dining there.  To me, winning a small business award is rather like getting a recommendation from an accountant.  Now if it was a recommendation from a food crtic, say the "2010 Restaurant Award" or "2010 Best Yum Cha Award", it would be a different story but "Best Business"?  To my, admittedly paranoid, mind, that suggests the propieters have simply found the most cunning way to overcharge their customers.
