About me:
When it comes to choosing a restaurant, I always want a second opinion, so Yelp used to be a perfect solution (even though I never thought I would post my own reviews). Although their ranking system seemed overly manipulated, Yelp was a convenient source for restaurant info, so I constantly referenced it. But when highly rated restaurants on the site began to fall flat, I was inclined to set the record straight. Over 50 yelp reviews later, I had had enough and decided to create The Confoodant, a place where a network of trusted food enthusiasts could grow and post their opinions.
Is it just a blog?
Confoodant.com is still in development, but the network of confoodants has already begun to grow and are invited to post their reviews on The Confoodant blog until the real website is up and running. The blog doesn't provide the features that the full site will, but just think of it as a temporary home to start sharing restaurant tips with people you trust (and who trust you).

Finally ended up having dinner here, and some might say I'm going out on a limb, but I really wasn't excited by the food....at all. And would actually only recommend this place for its bar scene--upstairs was packed around midnight on a Tuesday.
Decided to juxtapose the two most underrated dishes (Rabbit and Squid Stew, according to the waitress) with the two most popular (Burger/Fries, and Gnudi). And nothing came out on top.
"Most Under Rated"
The Squid Stew was disappointingly homogeneous dispute the many components--it all tasted and looked the same. You couldn't tell if you were eating an onion or a piece of squid. Eating this dish was absolute monotony.
The Rabbit was similarly flawed despite being nicely cooked. Making matters worse, the braising liquid "burned" your mouth with salt as if it had been over reduced after ample seasoning. I can understand how this fits into the gastro-pub concept of simple, straightforward food, but for $31, it's not worth it!
"Most Popular"
The gnudi was the nicest looking thing put on the table, and while one bight is delicious, is not a terribly balanced dish. Try eating a whole serving and see what I mean!
The burger was made of good meat and was adeptly cooked, but it totally fell flat for me--I'm pretty sure the burger at Loreley is WAY better. Anyone else with me on this?!
