In case you missed it
Not to bore you or anything, but I came across another must read piece - this time a not-so-flattering look at the Zagat empire.
You know Zagat - it’s the dinosaur of customer-based restaurant reviews. Printed in actual books and only recently available on your handheld device…so quaint!
Anyways, this bit of (seriously almost) investigative journalism comes from the Washington CityPaper. And I know you’re going to find it interesting. I know I did.
Here’s the opening paragraph:
The Zagat guide turned 30 years old this year, and in honor of the occasion, I’d like to give founders Tim and Nina Zagat a hearty thanks for all their years of service to the restaurant industry. And, if I may, I’d like to offer some friendly advice, too: You can go away now.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to work where I’m putting the finishing touches on my latest scone creation - dark chocolate & cherry with coconut. Breakfast never sounded better to me!
