Robin, have you ventured out there to ask how many people dine there a day/week? I know many people in certain areas of our fair city probably do not "belong" to this board, but why treat them in a less than an equal manner?
I believe we need to get ALL areas of the old Jeff Co involved in what happens in the Ville.

You're missing my point, though. I'm not saying that we shouldn't review restaurants in less "popular" sections of the metro. I have *always* done that. I'm just asking this: If the CJ in particular goes to a little-known neighborhood joint and there's not much to say about it because it's not really outstanding, does it make sense to use up a full week's column on it rather than doing something possibly more useful to more people? If Fork in the Road only deserves two stars, and both food and service are variable, then wouldn't the whole metro *including* the Southwest be better served if he deep-sixes that project and keeps looking until he finds a three-star candidate in the same part of town?
