Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Some seem to think that restaurateur Jeffrey Chodorow's grudge against NY Times restaurant critic Frank Bruni runs deeper than just one bad review. Chodorow has, after all, said that he feels his restaurants have always gotten the short stick from the reviewer. A recent piece on Page Six of the NY Post seems to confirm this, as Chodorow has just announce that Bruni is banned from all of his 29 restaurants.
For those of you wondering how the Chodorow plans to ban someone whose looks are supposed to be a secret, just know that restaurant staffs make it their business to unmask restaurant critics whenever possible, many kitchens will have a wall of critics and other notable people to keep an eye out for. Chodorow's employees have an extra reason to look for Bruni because Jeffrey has offered a free trip for two to the Caribbean to the first person to recognize him. As insurance to make sure he is seen, Chodorow plans to post a photo of Bruni on his personal blog sometime soon.

If Chowdorow is, in fact, threatening to out Bruni, this has ceased to be a merely a case of two divas butting heads. If the precedent is set that a restauranteur receiving a bad review can simply out a critic and destroy his or her career in retaliation, I'd say that's pretty significant. Up to that point, I agree, it's daytime drama. But if Chowodorow takes that step, it's something much more serious.
