Food slut

People say great food is like great sex. But after two years of reviewing trendy restaurants, chatting with charming chefs, and indulging in fatted duck breast, I've lost my appetite.

    Cut Harri some slack

    Ann's article is overwrought.

    I don't agree with Harri's specific criticisms of Ann's writing, but I do agree with her general criticism of Ann's premise.

    She was given a 3 bedroom house due to a publisher's advance, she's allowed to eat at fancy restaurants for free, yet she continues to denigrate everything about the food writing industry... the same industry that paid her bills for 2 good years.

    Now that she's burned her bridges here, which industry will she suck the life from next?

    Incidentally, I'm tired of the "porn" moniker being attached to everything. It's so 2002.
