It is one thing to inform and criticize, but it is another thing take on arrogant/condescending tone as a means to insult (and not inform). You really need to learn to do better things with your life. And Grace, please make the correction in the future. I'm sure you will. Keep up the good and honest reviews, and I'm sure the wisdom you'll learn along the way will only make your page that much better.

Don't be angry just because I exposed your ignorance about which restaurant you even went to. I love these self-appointed "gourmets" and "foodies" writing restaurant reviews when they can't even figure out which restaurant they are reviewing. Perhaps you should go to Bar Masa and tell people that you went to Masa? Or maybe go to Cafe Boulud and write a review about Daniel. How about Aquavit Cafe as a substitute for Aquavit? Keep telling yourself that you went to Jean-Georges - face it, given your ignorance, it'd just be a waste even if you really could afford it. Ha, that’s right, go ahead and delete my comment.

You went to the Nougatine room. They are adjacent, but the menu is different. The dinner menu at the real Jean Georges is $98, and $148 for tasting menu. I noticed the difference when you didn't mention the egg caviar - Jean Georges would never serve a tasting menu without that dish. Nougatine room is a fine place, but it's not fair to attribute your review of this restaurant to the real Jean Georges, which I consider a much superior establishment.

You are true to your review. I agree that a lot of chefs make dishes either too salty, spicy or too sugary. Salty, spicy or sugary food should not be treated as tasty or spicy. The best kind of chefs are the ones that appreciate the natural flavor of the ingredients and only use herbs or spices to bring the true nature of the food they work with to inspire and delight us...... Keep up your good work and authentic comments I like the review on the dishes you tried. You are true to your review. I agree that a lot of chefs make dishes either too salty, spicy or too sugary.
