Wow Foodieman, I’m impressed with your psychic abilities – you know these places are overrated before they’ve even been rated! Or opened for that matter!
Thanks for the heads up on the Depot. I drove by there last night and didn’t notice they were closed, will have to investigate…

…sheesh…im just trying to get a job Mrs. Rodell
I am just upset that I will not be able to spend that kind of money on “gourmet” hamburger
well, .i will wait for your review of Craft.
Who wants to make a bet about the stars that Mrs. Rodell will give? i say three. what do you say? Yes You!

I’d say you’re insulting Ms. Rodell by attempting to predict the results of her independent review.
December 6th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
No Robin im not. calm down.
December 6th, 2008 at 3:04 pm
Wait, three for Craft or three for Flip? Or both? Hmmm. Interesting.

Im sorry Mrs. Rodell, i do not want to be predicting your stars.
You should review Yakitori Jinbei.. a full page. Next trend yakitori, izakaya, ramen
blissful glutton mentioned Jinbei before but i think it deserves more for quality they serve.
Sorry again..i dont want to be doing your job. dont want it to be mistaken as being insult

Not insulted – hope you aren’t either by my kidding you about the overrated comment. I have been in a bit of a three star rut recently – stars are fascinating to readers and important to restaurants I suppose, but very aggravating to critics. So often it’s comparing apples to oranges.
I have high hopes for Craft actually. One of the best meals I had this year was at the NY location. If they bring even a little bit of what they have going there (or even part of that wine list!) to the Atlanta location I’ll be happy. Have heard mixed things about the Dallas location though – we shall see.

Actually Besha from what I hear you are the reviewing authority in Atlanta now. Keep up the good work.
