I have been a restaurant critic for over a decade, written reviews of well over 700 establishments, & if there is one thing I have learnt it is that people like reviews of bad restaurants. No, scratch that. They adore them, feast upon them like starving vultures who have spotted fly-blown carrion out in the bush. They claim otherwise, of course. Readers like to present themselves as private arbiters of taste; as people interested in the good stuff. I`m sure they are. I`m sure they really do care whether the steak was served au point as requested or whether the souffle had achieved a certain ineffable lightness. & yet, when I compare dinner to bodily fluids, the room to an S & M chamber in Neasden (only without the glamour or class), & the bill to an act of grand larceny, why, then the baying crowd is truly happy. Don`t believe me? Then why, presented with the chance to buy this ebook filled with accounts of twenty restaurants
- their chefs, their owners, their poor benighted front of house staff
- getting a complete stiffing courtesy of the sort of vitriolic bloody-curdling review which would make the victims call for their mummies, did you seize it with both hands?
