  • NYT destroys Guy Fieri's new restaurant

    Now, I've always thought Guy Fieri was a douche bag, more of an aging frat boy who never matured than an actual food critic, plus I hate how his show ALWAYS WITHOUT FAIL declares what ever restaurant is on his show this episode to be the best he's ever had. Every single one. I have no doubt his restaurant does suck with horrible food which is horribly over priced but... DAMN! This is what I call a bad review. The worst review I have ever seen.

    Some highlights:

    "Were you struck by how very far from awesome the Awesome Pretzel Chicken Tenders are? If you hadn’t come up with the recipe yourself, would you ever guess that the shiny tissue of breading that exudes grease onto the plate contains either pretzels or smoked almonds? Did you discern any buttermilk or brine in the white meat, or did you think it tasted like chewy air?"
    “When we hear the words Donkey Sauce, which part of the donkey are we supposed to think about?”
    “Why did the toasted marshmallow taste like fish?”
    Is the entire restaurant a very expensive piece of conceptual art? Is the shapeless, structureless baked alaska that droops and slumps and collapses while you eat it, or don’t eat it, supposed to be a representation in sugar and eggs of the experience of going insane?
    ATMOSPHERE 500 seats, three levels, three bars, one chaotic mess.
    SERVICE The well-meaning staff seems to realize that this is not a real restaurant.

    For just a moment I thought by destroyed you meant "literally sent armed hooligans to damage his property."

      Do newspapers normally do that as part of their restaurant reviews?

        It would make them more interesting.

              Best restaurant review ever. And it couldn't have happened to a more deserving douche..

              Fun fact: Fieri elbowed his way onto the Food Network by winning a competition show ("Next Food Network Star"). I always found it telling that the show the gave him (DD&D) was seemingly designed to keep him from having to cook.

                To be fair, DD&D is a pretty interesting show sometimes, and he has a great personality for it. But I've never enjoyed any of his cooking shows, they seem like he's trying to be Emeril, but without the same personality.
