hello future
After reading the review on hamburger restaurants in the DFW area, I was reminded about how wonderful my life would be if my job consisted of eating and then writing about eating. I aspire to be a restaurant/food critic/reviewer. I obviously need to do a little more research if I don't even know the job title of my dream job. Things are lookin' great. Regardless, you know what I'm talking about. The review showed me that there is more to a restaurant/food review than just writing about the restaurant and the food (unless, of course you don't want your review to be read). Yes, food is a wonderful part of being a human being and everyone loves to hear about the new greatest thing, but readers need the full effect. When I think of a typical food review, it includes the examination of the atmosphere, the prices, the service, and the food. In this review, they gave us more. They explained their journey in finding that one best hamburger, giving the reader a more interesting story to read. While I didn't want to review a review, I did want to reflect on the greatness of such a career. I'm sold.

Lauren,
ReplyDeleteI completely agree. Being a food critic just might be the best job a person could ever have. Trying exotic foods and receiving the best service is definitely a lifestyle I could get use to. There is more to being a food critic that what first meets the eye. Accurately recording experiences, prices, menus, and other relevant information can make or break the future of a restaurant. This job obviously carries a lot of responsibility. Good luck wit your dream job and let me know if you need a partner ☺
