"Tell me what you eat, I'll tell you who you are." -Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
I'm a foodie at heart. Pair my love of food with my love of travel and you have a dangerous and expensive combination. Luckily I've been fortunate enough to travel around and have some great meals in my life. Whenever I travel I seek out the local specialties, the dive spots as well as the posh restaurants. It doesn't matter how long the line is, how out of the way, or how rundown the restaurant is - I'm just after an amazing meal. Add the allure of restaurants competing against each other claiming to be the best you can bet I'll be trying them all.
I was tired of all the fair-weather "everything here is amazing" reviews on television so I decided to post my honest opinions on this site. I call it like I see it. If it is great or if it sucks I'll let you know my opinion - and it is only my opinion, as always, you're entitled to your own.
