I mean it as someone who would rate a course more based on the quality of the meat then the Brussel sprouts and cauliflower appetizer.Diggity said:I think the Chronicle has a reader's choice list for the best "common man" restaurants.texagbeliever said:Diggity said:
I would question why a place like Preslee's would ever be on a food critic's radar in the first place. Must have missed that outrage.
I have no love for Allison Cook. Just think the criticism of a food critic's appearance is funny.
A common man, who looks at Allison Cook, can tell he most likely will never order the same food she would at a restraunt. At the same time, her appearance would suggest she doesn't have a great attention to detail either. Not that there is anything wrong with that, just doesn't seem to make for a valuable food critic review for most.
Speaking of Brussels sprouts appetizer, a friend recommended Fieldings Wood Grill in the woodlands for a business lunch last week. I had their Brussels sprouts as a side and they surpassed Underbelly's as "best sprouts in the Tine".
