What’s funny is that scene with the two guys reminded me of the one weekday I was there. I took some business associates there thinking it would be like on the weekends only to have bad service and food that was less than...

Yeah, season 1 was much better. Carlos' performance the past couple of weeks was really disappointing. Who closes a highly rated restaurant to go on a realty show to play it safe? Granted, he got screwed out of an immunity two...

view on most experiences (restaurants, movies,music,travel) is that only you can decide – reviews are entertaining, but too subjective to ever be really conclusive. Enjoy! Coachboy

anybody head out today? would love to hear what the scene's like—probably no shopping carts left at 9:07.... :)

Thanks to the Memphis Chowhounds who have posted their thoughts on the local scene. That body of collective knowledge helped steer me to some really good things and away from bad things. Here’s a short summary, with a longer...

's meal... Did anyone get a picture of them breaking open the chicken? At $25 per person, an outstanding deal. Ridiculous, actually. I would have been happy paying the $40 p/p we had been told it might cost. By the way, when you...

I’m stumped. Why is it that Park Slope supports (or seems to support)terrific restaurants such as Max & Moritz, Al Di La,and Rosewater but has such dismal grocery shopping? I suppose that’s in part because people will...

't experienced before. The basis for the introductions done in this manner, is that most people don’t have the confidence to try things themselves, or think that all restaurants make it better than they can. Truth be told,...

Actually, this makes a lot of sense. I distinctly remember a shot of Antonia’s table being significantly less crowded than the others. However, I think my desire for Lisa to go home overtook that particular scene and I just...

I will add another criteria. How many of each type of restaurant do you see and what is successful. Admittedly this is an empirical test, but I think it bears discussion as well. Based on my area, the West Village/Downtown...

I will say that I wish the salsa competition had been better organized. Perhaps the judging could have been done simultaneously with people sampling? I didn’t try any salsas because it was just a mob scene, but I heard that...
