Only available for a limited time...

I've been writing this blog for about five months now.  As far as I know, these are the places I've written up that are now out of business:

Chau's Burgers and Sandwiches
Eddie's Wood Fired Dogs
Giacinto's Italian Gourmet
Kickin Chicken
Manila Bay

And when I last checked the Portuguese Barbecue Lunch Wagon, the place I did my first entry on, was up for sale.  I know that I tend to seek out the path less traveled (figuratively speaking), and the economy still isn't in the best shape, but the moral of the story is simply this: if you hear about a place or a dish you really want to try, whether here or from anyone else, DO IT WHILE YOU HAVE THE CHANCE.  Regret sucks.

I'd like an order of food critcism, light on the criticism please...

This is another of my boring rants.  Proceed at your own risk...

In the game of food roulette, I finally pulled the trigger one too many times and came up with a loaded chamber.  I've been feeling a little blah for a couple of days now due to a meal purchased from a mobile eatery.  Before anyone thinks to ask, NO, it was not a taco truck.  This was good, old-fashioned, all-American fare.  I'm not going to name names here because what was wrong with it was that it was just too damn greasy.  I just simply have a grease threshold, and if it's crossed I pay the price for a bit.  I should have followed my instincts this time around and not ate the stuff, and that's why the vendor shall remain anonymous, but it has gotten me thinking for about the third time since I started this blog: when is it worth it to write a negative review?
