Recently I was reading the local paper and stumbled across the restaurant reviews and in there I found information about several local restaurants. I had never really read these reviews before, however, after reading them I found a lot of the information that was in them to be true. For instance, one of the reviews was actually from a local Chinese restaurant that I frequent because it is right up the road. It is a nice little place, family run, and is usually very clean and the people are very nice. The food is so so, but the service is slow. These people wouldn't know speed, if it jumped up and bit them. Well, this is almost exactly what the food critic described. Since I found his opinions found so close to my own, I wanted to learn more from him about the best and worst restaurants in the area. I have only been here for a few months, and except for a few local places, I have not ventured too far out of the box. This guy gave some great reviews on a few of the restaurants down near the local mall, and some of them he gave 5 stars, which in this paper is his very best rating. He even went to some of these places when they were very busy, and still he got good quality food, fast and friendly service, and was very happy with the overall experience.

Well, I am really anxious to try one of his suggestions and I will be going to a place that he gave 5 stars to this weekend when my parents come to town. I am always afraid that my mom, who is I must admit a bit of a snob, won't like my choice of restaurants and will make a face. She would never make a stink, at least not until we are in car, but I still want her to be happy with her meal and the service and atmosphere. My father is much easier to please. As long as he can eat the food and the waitress or waiter is not a total idiot, then he is happy. I am really hoping after this meal we can all leave happy. I guess I will find out this weekend if my opinion and the restaurant reviews match up.
