@kathleenpurvis Ten years later they're still not listening.

Seriously, look at your restaurant's website right now. If you don't see address, phone & hours immediately, you've got a bad website.

@brettmartin Also, you're an adjective!

@felixsalmon That seems like something you'd look into before making the assignment.

[Pete Wells @pete_wells]

If you hire a critic to write a piece of criticism, and the criticism is good and fair, and the subject doesn't like it, you do not soften the copy. You do not pull the piece, either. You promote the hell out of it and ask the critic what he'd like to write next.

@isolatediguana not that unruly

[Pete Wells @pete_wells]

Here's something to brighten everybody's day. A great restaurant city needs a big unruly mob of restaurant critics, sowing fear and mayhem.

@DavidWondrich @JulieBesonen Better than Pepe's by that point, I think.

@Sulliview Those early Baez recordings are lethally pure.

@DavidWondrich @JulieBesonen Those who ate it remember it still.

Turns out lab-grown meat is probably 25 times more energy intensive than traditional beef in its current form, a new UC Davis study has found. @taraduggan has the story. https://t.co/nvAQUn5tSL via @sfchronicle

@Shteyngart I suspect I should tell you to pace yourself but I have never figured out how to do it.
