[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never understood why he relentlessly promotes Rasika every chance he gets. It's a good restaurant but not all that great.[/quote] Rasika is the best Indian food I’ve ever had. And I rarely read his column. Did he really recommend Jaleo? That’s nothing special at all. [/quote] See, and we love both. I don't like to keep too much good jamon or cheese around the house, I'd rather go to Jaleo for a special occasion. And Rasika is our go-to for milestone anniversary dinners. I have a couple of childhood friends whose moms can make tandoori and daal almost as good, but Rasika is closer, and takes reservations. I'll just add that I'm another reader who finds his reviews and advice quite useful, and he often gives thoughtful and reasoned answers to his own critics in the live chat, which a lot of people won't do. [/quote] I like Rasika but find Jaleo just okay. I rely on Eater rather than the WaPo for reviews. However, I agree that his chats are really good for the reasons mentioned. He also does a pretty good job of recommending restaurants in other cities when people ask.[/quote]
