And people are allowed to say and write what they want.

I understand what some critics are trying to do by remaining anonymous; if people know that there is someone special in the house, they would make sure they would do beyond an A+ job to ensure a good review. However, critics want to see restaurants how they normally are; their expectation is that these eateries strive to perform above A+ work, no matter who walks in. <br />If people want to include their own reviews on Yelp or Facebook, that is fine, but when major food critics are coming in, the outdating of anonymity really has nothing on them.Alexis Wright-Whitleyhttp://www.leftoutlexis.comnoreply@blogger.com
