One of the things about being a food blogger that rather reminds me of being a doctor or dentist is the fact that people often corner you at parties (or work!) and ask for “professional” advice.  But whereas doctors have to face people pulling up their sleeves and saying “I have this nasty rash…”, and dentists have to grit their teeth as someone opens wide, and points at the offending tooth halfway through chewing on a canapé, at least food bloggers do rather enjoy giving advice on food.  Sometimes the questions are about recipes, but mostly people ask about restaurant recommendations.    So I thought it was high time that I collected all my reviews together neatly in one spot so that the next time somebody asks I can just send them the hyperlink.  And I’ll keep adding to the list as I post more reviews.

Bon appetit!
