But I don't know you, Steve, nor do you know me. How can we know each
other's tastes? At least a restaurant critic has the experience of many
different restaurants to compare with.

The point I was making was that I'd trust someone who was making the list
rather than a "critic."

This is a personal choice on how to list restaurants. As long as we list
the source of the review (whether it's personal or from a printed review),
then the user can decide whether or not to use it. Any suggestion on a
restaurant in a strange town is better than no suggestion.

I think we should only list the ones WE eat at. For one thing, several
different critics have different subjectivity. And I certainly know that
a lot of movies that cirtics like I hate and vice versa. I know not
everyone will like everything, but it's been my experience that people
who I know that recommend movies and places to eat generally on the
money. I suggest we stick to places we've been at.

It's not that big a deal... I agree a critic saying a restaurant is good is
better than going to a bad one... I still prefer a non-critic's opinion...
