the hardest part about a review is when you drank a wine for 5 years from $45 to $65 and tonight its $160, (even if its worth it), but the smart person over looks and dives smack into the 78 Sfursat for $45...another night at Manducatis, and a great night at that!!

Is a new restaurant ever going to bump one of these off the list, or will it just keep growing? I like this new style.

  • i was thinking mikes list might deserve a permanent spot in the left hand column or if others wanted to make their own lists there could be a linked page. i dont eat out often enough to warrant my own list but a couple of you are major mangers.

  • Well, one nice thing about the way he is doing it now is that you could go back and see how the list changed over the course of the year. If it was on the left you'd only get the most recent version.

    What I would like is for each restaurant on the list to be a link to the post about that specific meal. Although I guess the list itself has become the post for some of the places. But I know this would be a pain to maintain.

    • "...you could go back and see how the list changed over the course of the year..."

      couldnt you conjure up some of that computer juju and archive it, if it were so desired?

When the list gets long I can't even remember what county I am supposed to be in! How about some geography reminders. That way I can discard some places I will never get to.

The thing is -- we have to get a group together to eat at Jacky's. All I know is that it is 1 hour north of Tours and everyone loves the place. Supposed to be much better then Les Tonnelles. And I thought that was awfully good. How did I get here anyhow?
