Whose food reviews do you trust the most?
« on: September 06, 2016, 17:24:05 PM »
I always read the food reviews on here but am quite often dissapointed after some of them have tempted me to try them with the "great" reviews..    The only review that I really trust now as an honest opinion and she is usually right is Linda Kayakebab... She tells it how it really is and she is seldom if ever wrong.... I do think that she is fair with her reviews.. If a place is good then she will say so.. I am sticking with her in future...  ;D    We have our own favourites but I rely on her for the new places... Whose reviews do you trust??

I think the biggest problem here is continuity.
Thats where the Meeting Point does well. And Nil Bar. Family concerns with same chefs year in year out.
Neither are top class cuisine, just good honest grub.
I think generally eating out across Calis & Fethiye is mediocre and we're often disappointed.
A lot of course is down to budget and Mr Kayakebab won't eat anywhere he has to pay a few lire extra ( apart from Yengec Ovacik which is superb) so we stick to more the budget end and love proper Turkish lokantas.
So if you want top end reviews look elsewhere!

I suspect that most members would assume that kayakebab has eaten on the front fairly recently which makes me wonder why the question ?.

I took it to mean that someone who prefers traditional Turkish lokantas won't find themselves eating in Calis much  ;)

I take a view based on what a good number of people are saying - both those I know and on sites like this and Tripadvisor etc.

When it comes to believing individuals, I find Cenk and Diverbaz are always spot on      :)

Last time I ate in Calis was about 3 weeks ago at Shanghai Blues.
And before that a few times while family and friends were here during July & August.
Have to say the Beach House was surprisingly good, Varil is very good as is Curry Palace.
Mainly do the tourist strip when family & friends are here.

Never trust a food review which is written by a Brit.  ;D ;D ;D
Except a food review about fish & chips.  :angel:
