If you can identify chanterelles or venison, then you should not be attempting to be a food blogger. You suck.

I on’t go to the eateries you blog about but I really enjoy your food blogging. I like venison too and went out to dinner last night; my steak was great! Please keep up the food blogging!

Raymi is the newest Antony Bourdaine but for the blogging media! You should be on TV. Get a broadcast channel to sign you for this type of job.
BTW, I love this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVQk5NlGEBs

i was making a joke. i dont need to be linked or know anyone of ay particular culture/race/gender/sexual orientation to feel like that gives me rights to make fun of it, generalize, stereotype etc. if someone’s a prick they’re a prick. if they are french then they are a french prick. if they are german then they are a german prick. if they are a lesbian then they are a lesbian prick. i was going the route of the idiot who thinks they can be racist cos “their best friend is black” kind of hard to get that across in blog written form which is also the point because it is provocative and engenders discussion.

You don’t need the excuse of your mom being born anywhere to be able to say what you like about the French. Your experience is your experience. just recognize that your experience may not be universal or representative of the entire population…

no more business from me. i am not a random blogger seeking free food, i was on assignment. some customers were so intrigued with what i was doing at cafe du lac two nites ago and the look of the plates they went directly to cheese boutique the following day to see more presentation. your snooty holier than thou attitude will be the death of your business, the hey day is already over as im sure you’re well aware. it’s people like me keeping it alive for you, don’t fancy yourself so much. i have sent so much business your way you don’t even know. i always drop your name and suggest people check it out WEEKLY when i am emailed from blog readers asking where in town they should visit or ask where it was i ate that thing tsk tsk. how are you to even know what is actually effectively paying off for you how ignorant! also, i have never been comped anything in your establishment, meal-wise, nor have i ever asked.

keeping to myself and taking (beautiful) photos of food that i pay for at my own table is my right to do i don’t see how it bothers any other diner sitting there bored and scowling before during and/or after my presence. you decide to make a thing of it then it becomes a thing when really it’s no thing.

everyone sits at their table photographing one another for their stupid facebook albums, memories, celebrations. coming down on someone who is there as a legit food enthusiast and actually a fan of cuisine is ludicrous.
