Ouch. Harsh.

If you choose to eat at a place that slathers its food in "donkey sauce," you pretty much deserve what you get. (And that review was hilarious!)

That many questions is a hard read. Not a well written review though he def got his point across

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't recognize well-written literature if it smacked you in the jaw.

It was brilliant, full-stop. And exceedingly well-written.

The only thing that made it hard to read was the inclusion of all the ridiculous made up "ingredients" and menu terms coined by Guy.

I think "brilliant" is over-stating it a bit (as is the suggestion it bears a relationship to great literature). I think it's more noteworthy for the unrestrained criticism than the writing style, but it's a fun read.

I found the review about as annoying as I find Mr. Fieri, which may have been the point but made for tiresome reading.

I did enjoy this, though:
Why did the toasted marshmallow taste like fish?

NP here. Well-written? Brilliant!? Are you kidding?

Read some of Jay Rayner's reviews in the Observer and then get back to us.

Give yourself another pat on the back, Mr. Wells.

Tiresome was a perfect description of the read.

I thought it was a very funny review. I think Ezra Klein tweeted the line about the marshmallow.
