Peas and Carrots is a blog that reviews and rates restaurants. All the restaurant reviews are critiqued by the quality and taste of their dishes and front house service; the two main aspects to a great dining experience. Food is our passion and we would love to share that with you through this avenue. We feel that the people that serve us and cook for us at restaurants should have that same passion and love for food as well...we hope.
Most of the restaurants we go to are what we call "mama papa" places. Their food is "usually" made with real ingredients, with more care, and their dishes are unique to that restaurant alone. We do not like franchise restaurants, but we will discuss them in this blog should we happen to visit one. It's just hard to eat food that comes out of a plastic bag.
All ratings and reviews are based on our own experiences and if they get a bad review, it could just be a bad day of service or something was incorrectly seasoned; or we just don't like the restaurant period. I think it's reasonable to be critical and deserve an enjoyable meal, when I am spending a certain amount of my hard earned money on them. Should a restaurant get a good review, we will praise them and eat there constantly and probably get more reviews on the other dishes that we try.
We are unbiased, yet fair, but very blunt!
Our rating system will be symbolized by peas and carrots. The more peas and carrots, the better the restaurant. If we blacklist it..."take your chances".
Peas (out of 5) - Is our rating towards customer service. We will be looking into friendliness, efficiency and timing of food and drinks, recommendations, questions asked and answered, wine service if applicable, clearing of plates, and most importantly, the conversation and smiles!
Carrots (out of 5) - Is our rating towards the food. We will be looking into the flavours...THE TASTE. We could care less about the plating, unless it's crazy gorgeous that we feel like taking a picture of it.
Blacklist - DO NOT GO THERE
Let the reviews begin!
