What to do if you had to write a bad restaurant review?

Say "It is not okay!"

Usually food writers promote healthful products and restaurants that serve heavenly, delicious, and extraordinary food.

Most writers are fond of food.

"You have to say the truth. You always have to tell the truth so the restaurant could improve," food experts assent. "Taste buds have different preferences, plus your visit is also due good service and a clean kitchen."

Here are some tips for a restaurant review:

Restaurant reviews have no exact form.

It states restaurant features, name, location (map/how to get there), food price, meal discounts, estimated costs per person, and the various menu.

Appetizers, desserts, beverages, and dishes are enumerated. These will please customers and inform the public.

Restaurant ambiance is also discussed. Is it fine dining? Is it buffet style? Is it a fast food setting? Pictures and posters are distributed for the presentation of food.

An overview of the restaurant's food specialty is given a highlight with commendations from various people for specific consumers and food lovers.

Restaurant reviews also include a commentary (positive or negative), an essay of appreciation, or a culinary climax in any form.

Sometimes a simple recipe of the menu and its ingredients are given away. Health benefits derived from the food are analyzed and shown by nutritionists.

Here is an experience:

During my first restaurant review of a Japanese Restaurant (Thanks to Cook Magazine); I was really ashamed because I didn't know how to use the chopsticks. All the press people were using the chopsticks, and I was the only one who asked for a spoon and a fork. But it was cool because I have learned to manage and asked for a fork. From then on, I always used the chopsticks.

I thank Cook Magazine for this. "The restaurant was exquisitely marvelous and sushi was fresh. Everyone loved the menu and it came one at a time served by waiters."

The personal reactions to both the food and restaurant are important to consumers. Consumers update with food in popular culture.

Overtones of sad and happy experiences give authenticity to restaurant reviews. Detailed analyses of specific outstanding dishes - good and dismal are helpful for everyone since food is part of life and culture.

Some people find something happy and unhappy with food and start having a good time.

Indeed, saying "It is not okay!" is okay for food and restaurant reviews.

Strictly, Clean and Good Food


September 20, 2011

Thoughts to Ponder  On:

I Shall Eat and Cook

1.

We've all been to some eating sprees and junctions.  In any form, it is a fact that good food must be clean and handled with care.

2.

Of course, for students, young professionals, and everyone - I prefer McDonald and Jollibee for its yummy taste, affordable price, cleanliness, and trained staff.

3.

Lately, I had encountered bad-baked bread, rancid butter taste, a side dish of smelly corn and carrots, and a thread from a thick pizza slice.  These similar instances must be reported to the management so the food company and staff will make sure of the good quality and freshness of every food they will serve the public.

These are paid restaurants.  FYI:  Don't forget to serve clean and fresh food for the public.

How about the staff?  Are they paid justly?
