Besides the lack of food-relevant content in her post, she needs to buy a better camera with that $50k and learn how to take better pictures. And either leave her face out of the pictures, or put a paper bag over it.

I figure I'm not involved in any capacity so any criticism I offer...well, the benefits only go one way.
I don't hold any animosity toward anyone involved...it's just that I don't feel I need to participate. That's not because it's not my blog. Ask any of my friends with blogs and sites...I don't really leave many comments to begin with. The people that write sites where I would...I talk to them on a regular basis anyways so I can just go "Hey, you know when you wrote about...that thing?". Quote:

I don't see what I would gain from it. I figure this was last month...we can just part ways professionally. Quote:

It's not like I used foul language or anything. | LOL...I get your criticism, but c'mon, it's just food blogging. |

how do you write a food blog without mention a few items off the menu that are must have.
what do people reading this get out of it, try the squab and don't get the chinese broccoli? information is key, and the thing that people that would be reading it wants out of the article.
i just hope it gets better, cuz if not, then its epic fail on tourism richmond's part

LOL at the rhubarb getting more attention than the actual food at the restaurant.
At least she has 364 more chances to improve. |

i dont have any issues of where she went that doesn't really matter
my issue is she talked about nothing.... absolutely nothing.... like 1 sentence was about what she ate and thats it... and she's like i dont want to write about the other dishes because you'll be reading a novel?!  bitch if you talked about the food instead of prattled on about nothing you could have reviewed every dish
I think her problem is they ordered a bunch of things and she didn't know wtf was sitting in front of her (by name) so she couldn't review it so she just picked the most obvious dish
as for the scarf chicks have summer scarves spring scarves fall scarves winter scarves... they can make a hot chick all the more hotter kind of like when a girl wears a dress instead of jeans/tights

Not gonna lie, I take a lot of cues from Jeremy Clarkson's writing and presenting style.
I routinely write 1000+ words for most blog posts. I guess if I was writing daily, I'd go for about 600-700.
