In the length of time it took you to read this, you could have already reviewed a restaurant What is the Ultimate Guide? It's a guide to veg foods and services in the SF Bay Area and lives at http://bayareaveg.org/ug if you've never posted a review, it's easy and actually kinda fun to give kudos to all the great places that do veg food so well. Here's how to do it: http://www.bayareaveg.org/ug/glossary.htm#add Some recent reviews: Pizza Plaza (5 stars): I thought the pizza was excellent. We tried the pesto veggie and the chick-fu. Both were very tasty. We gave the edge to chick-fu because of the sun dried tomatoes. The crust is whole grain with perfect texture, the pesto sauce was great, and there were lots of toppings with not too much cheese, which is best on a vegan pizza. I'd rate them 5+. The cheesecake was excellent, too. Greens Restaurant (1.5 stars): Our chef roomie said it was pricey and unspectacular. We went anyway and sure enough, were underwhelmed. The waiter was condescending and confusing, the tables were too close, and the food is not all it's cracked up to be. Good food is good food and this wasn't it. The seasonings didn't hang together. The portions were a tad small. The flavors lacked. Okay, the pizza was edible, but it was small. Cha Ya (4.5 stars): Excellent dining experience. Yummy food, excellent service, and clean/quiet ambience that allows you to enjoy your food & good conversation with your dining companions. I recommend their sushi, seaweed salad, and tempura. Note - can be pricey. Typically costs me ~$20 for dinner. Weekend lunch is great value - most of the same items from the dinner menu, and a bit cheaper! More reviews ... and the Top Ten based on YOUR reviews: http://www.bayareaveg.org/ug/featured.htm This vegetarian restaurant, now closed, was "infamous" for its reviews in the Ultimate Guide. http://www.bayareaveg.org/ug/display.htm?id=296 Cheers,Tammy A dead cow or sheep lying in the pasture is recognized as carrion. The same sort of carcass dressed and hung up in a butchers stall passes as food. - J. H.
