One of the drawbacks of this job is that I’m rarely invited back. Restaurants with good reviews and Secret Diner Recommended stickers on the window don’t want to risk their luck, and those who’ve taken my worst flak wouldn’t let me darken their doors again.
This week I returned to a restaurant that barely scraped a solitary star the first time around. My criticism of it has sat glowering on this website like an old gravy stain on a crisp white tablecloth.
