About Our Reviews

If there's one thing missing on the internet, its honest restaurant reviews by people who know good food when they find it. The problem with "user review" sites is that most people are used to eating Lean Cuisine at home, so anything actually cooked on a stove is a real treat. As for newspapers, has Sun-Sentinel's Judith Stocks ever encountered a sandwich or crudite that she didn't like?
