An Epicure in Indiana?

I know, I know... those terms--Indiana and epicure--seem contradictory by nature. Just hang in there and keep reading. We write about a variety of restaurants because all good food doesn't come from places with white tablecloths, and places with white tablecloths don't always produce good food.

And maybe, just maybe, a bit of conversation about home cooking... hey, that can be good too!

JD Crepe Company Update

Guess what?  After spending 30 minutes or so writing an urbanspoon review of JD Crepe Company where I described the blatant lack of handwashing and bare hand-to-food contact, they (urbanspoon, that is) sent me an e-mail informing me they had deleted the entire review.  The e-mail read, in part:
 "Incidents like this are impossible for a restaurant to defend (or disprove) and can profoundly affect their reputation, so we don't include them."
Really?  I mean, really?  Every single negative thing ever posted in any review is impossible for a restaurant to defend or disprove and can profoundly affect their reputation!  EVERY SINGLE THING!  A host of ignorant reviewers can spew out a litany of mean spirited and spiteful comments full of misinformation and maliciousness but an objective and intelligently written review describing a major health code violation is not allowed to be heard on that forum.

I think the solution is for me to go back and video the "handwash-gate" incident and include it on this blog then send it to urbanspoon and see if proof will make a difference.

Sorry.  I apologize.  I am all fired up right now.  I have an innate distrust of and do rebel against authority of all types, so when I see what I perceive as abuse by those with "power" it frustrates me.
