Ok, so I started this blog then failed to update or add to it. No wonder I only have one follower at the moment. Let's change that, shall we?
I'm thinking of being a jerk. I was reacquainted with an ex-coworker of mine from my Motorola days in IT via Facebook. He writes a nice food blog centered on 'mom and pop' restaurants as opposed to the 'evil big chains'. In a fact, we had a spirited conversation when he posted is response to a 'chain' who invited him to come sample their food 'on them' and write a review on his blog.
I would've lept at the opportunity but he responded with a snobby response that he only caters to the mom and pop establishments, so thanks but no thanks. But, this place old be good! He doesn't know potentially what he's missing!
So, I'm gonna search for that Facebook posting and contact that restaurant. I'll gladly use them as my first food blog review. I can then be my friend's anti-foodie and review only chains! This could be fun...
Heres my plan:
I'll compose my letter to the chain, and will share with you.
I'll share the link to my friend's foodie blog, he has some nice recommendations and decent pictures of the food he reviews. He's been mentioned in other publications (online and in print I believe).
Then I'll update you once I get (if i get) a response from the chain. A chain, btw, that I never heard of until my friend mentioned his 'no thanks' letter on his Facebook....
I have a goal and I also has more meandering posts to post...now to clean the kitchen, start laundry and type up my letter to the chain...more to follow later, dear reader.
