I'll Be Your Snarker This Evening

Envy, people. Puuuuuure envy.

Miss Vinegar tried to resist, she really did. She already had her blogistic responsibilities, as it were. But occasional exposure to a local music criticism site turned her finicky head at last. After all, the shows were at restaurants--what about the food??

Clearly, there was a niche to be filled. And so we present:

The Ground Rules

1. Restaurants will be reviewed as Miss Vinegar encounters them. This means that, while most of my victims will be in Southwest Virginia and the surrounding areas, some will not be. Tuck this away as vacation information.

2. Hypotheticals. Miss Vinegar reserves the right to temporarily abandon specific reviews for a) bitching about inadequacies in local offerings, b) bitching about food in general, or c) bitching at utter random. That's why she's not Miss Simple Syrup, folks.

3. Cuisine with a K? Restaurants will range from the sublime to the fast-food chain.

4. Criteria. The usual: food quality, service, value, ambience, quality of Muzak, presence or absence of people negotiating their divorces on cell phones right behind your left shoulder, host picking his nose or not, Denny's on Military Highway in Norfolk, VA, I have never forgotten! Ahem. Pardon Miss Vinegar while she straightens her hat. Anyway, yes, the basics.

So chew on that until next time.
