Will I always agree with everything, no. Will I listen? Yes,<br /><br />Erin spent over a decade in San Francisco which has a remarkable food scene. It's also 3 times the size of Indianapolis. Again, that's where knowledge comes in.<br /><br />She is a "blogger" and dines out at her own expense versus the "Star", "Indianapolis Monthly" and other local "critics" who have expense accounts. She also knows there's more to life than a deep fryer, a steak and fast food. Thank God for that.<br /><br />I like TPC, but find nothing objectionable in this review and, indeed, will be "doing" brunch there the Sunday after Labor Day. Bottom line is thanks Erin.Joe in Montgomery, OHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700721558717637465.post-80072550466601955162012-08-26T10:44:13.627-04:002012-08-26T10:44:13.627-04:00Anon, Erin specifically said that she enjoyed thei...Anon, Erin specifically said that she enjoyed their "grass fed artisanal cheese and beef," she wrote that she really liked their appetizer cheese in puff pastry and that the burger was juicy and tasty. What she didn't like is a tiny piece of cheese for the price of the appetizer, and too little cheese on her grilled cheese sandwich. Gee, you think a place like Traderspoint, which is a Dairy farm and Creamery, would be a little more generous with their cheese? I don't think that's too much to ask. You might also be surprised to learn that this review drove me to seek out Traderspoint products at my local grocers, so even her less than glowing review is good for the business.<br /><br />And what is the point of this blog? Um ... it's called Indianapolis Restaurant Scene and contains (for the most part) reviews of Indianapolis-area restaurants ... is that too complex for you to grasp? If you're looking for reviews that pander to chains and sugar-coat bad food, look elsewhere (may I suggest IndyStar and IBJ?). <br /><br />Don't mess with Erin, she writes this blog for fun and is not paid to do so. A lot of us enjoy her blog, and if others don't like it, guess what? They don't have to read it. I'm surprised she's willing to post snide comments on her own blog, since she has no obligation to do so. <br /><br />Hmph.

All she stated was that the grilled cheese could have used more cheese. Not too much to ask when it's in the name of the dish, is it? Also, had you bothered to read more of the reviews, or read them better, you might see there are many reviews that are re-reviews due to the restaurant being well liked. Reviews can have something that wasn't liked, but still be positive overall. I'm sure there are plenty of chefs and restaurant owners appreciate knowing what they can do to improve.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7700721558717637465.post-45764627917078376542012-08-25T20:41:57.774-04:002012-08-25T20:41:57.774-04:00As usual, you've written a fair and balanced r...As usual, you've written a fair and balanced review, that is useful to those of us who like to read about local restaurants. We've tried new restaurants because of your reviews, and ordered different things at restaurants we frequent because of your reviews.

You write the best food reviews in Indy by far and as good as anywhere else, too. This guy probably works there or doesn't understand what a review is supposed to be.

I mean, are you ever happy with a place? I guess that grass fed artisanal cheese and beef is not good enough for you?
