hehe - THIS is why I'm not a food writer...there's just too much damn competition. =) Everyone's a food critic, and with the advent of the internet and blogsites and restaurant review sites like Yelp that let everyone have their say...E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E really can be a critic.
Here's the coolest part though - someone that I know only peripherally through a friend posted a review on Yelp which was read by the owner of the restaurant. AND - the restaurant proceeded to change their menu based on his review. HOW COOL IS THAT?
Check out his first hand account in his blog - Stranger in Berkeley. Not only are there people out there who are just as passionate (or MORE passionate) about food as I am - but they are completely willing to put themselves out there for their art. It's admirable and just amazingly cool.
Other cool blog that was linked from Coco's site - Exploring the Silver Spoon.
Seriously - food is what brings people together from all over the world. We all gots to eat, right?!
