Guest coach Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 I wish they'd do those recommendations at two price points each, at least. It doesn't do a lot of people much good when most of the restaurants listed are high end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest coach Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 It isn't that they pay specifically to be listed. But it is usually done in response to taking out good advertising packages. There's never anything written regarding the tit for tat, and everyone at the paper will deny it to their grave. But having been in the position of being an advertiser in local rags for many years, I know quite well how it works.What's your pick for best brunch buffet?

None of us agreed with this pick.Yea, I don't agree with it either. I have no reason to go back to that place, except maybe to have a cocktail or two. Foodwise, thanks, but I'll pass. The food is not worth the price they're charging for it.We even had a 9-page thread about it on Miami Junkies a long time ago when a group of us had dinner there.

And a few of them might actually work that way, but that would be more of a coincidence than anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
