I was browsing a certain review site and noticed THREE reviews already posted for a restaurant that isn’t due to open till May 2016.

THE FORKING TRUTH is that this is dishonest and unethical. Anybody past the age of 7 should know you can’t review a place you haven’t stepped into.

The Restaurant isn’t even open yet.

That is a WTFORK!

Now that is FORKED up!

I do understand that this restaurant has other locations and some people might feel like they already know the place. I also note it is possible these reviewers might have been to another one of the restaurant’s other locations………But this is still a WTFork! BECAUSE THEY HAVEN’T FORKING been in this restaurant yet.

Nobody wants to read a review when the reviewer hasn’t even forking set their forking mouth and teeth in the restaurant yet.

Doesn’t anyone manage this site?

I let this review’s site’s local and head office know about this and sent them both a “Tweet” because I’ve found that sending them questions threw their site is useless and nobody ever  replies.

The least I would expect was a reply that they aren’t perfect and stride for perfection or some kind of rubbish like that. Instead nothing from them.

The Forking Truth is that they don’t have the

MEATBALLS to reply to me.

Over the past several months I called this review site on a couple other things I noticed.

I noticed the review of the day was for a restaurant that was temporarily closed for business. I thought that review was very unhelpful for me and a review of a restaurant that was open for business would be a better choice. Again no reply.

Recently I also noticed  that an individual reviewer posted 46 reviews on one day on this particular review site. Any person with a working brain knows nobody goes to that many restaurants in a day, week or month. There is no credibility here when I see someone do something like this. Doesn’t this site have any rules. I contacted this site about what I noticed and asked how many reviews a day can someone post. Just like all the other times nobody replied to me.

Again no forking meatballs.

Tweets, contacting threw customer service and also contacting via talk don’t do a wee bit of good. Here is the FORKING TRUTH of what happened when I contacted them threw the talk page for a problem I had with their restaurant reservation service. This is the forking response I got.

It makes me think this site must be ran by forking drunk monkeys.

Well here is to all the no replies and the one worthless reply . It’s the Raspberry you are getting the FORKING Raspberry!

And That’s The Forking Truth

UPDATE! The review site removed the three reviews for the unopened restaurant. 2-8-16 after letting them know four days back.

The Forking Truth

Forking Filthy Salt and Pepper Shakers.

Forking Filthy Silverware.

Forking Chipped Glassware and or Plates.

Slopped up filthy bowls.

Dirty Floors.

Receiving brand new filthy napkins

Food that isn’t right…The above tarts were hard like rocks and our forking forks couldn’t penetrate them.

More food that isn’t right. Sent back food and received Recycled Food back. (Cook put orange American Cheese on the burger, scraped if off and slapped on the white cheese among other problems)

Even more forking food that isn’t right. Fondants that are FORKING icing fondant

Instead of Molten Lava Cakes like they should be.

and something completely different that really annoys me……

The Forking Weekend Brunch. Not all but it seems like MOST really nice restaurants in the metro area just offers a weekend BRUNCH.

Sometimes restaurants do less business for weekend lunch and must run with less staff to be open. Less staff and fewer menu items help with food cost but that isn’t appealing to everyone.

I REALLY forking hate brunch. I usually can’t eat out during the week and I’m not going to drive across town on the weekend to eat eggs, french toast, pancakes or forking oatmeal.

I want to have something nice like a fancy entree salad. Maybe a house roasted or house smoked meat sandwich on quality bread with maybe some sort of fancy farmers market side dish. I want something nice, something that inspires me and something that is worth driving across town for…

Usually going out to eat is special and enjoyable.

However filthy Salt and pepper shakers, Chipped glassware or plates, dirty anything that I have to use, dirty floors, food that isn’t right and Weekend Brunch are some of the Things I FORKING HATE that some Restaurants offer.

The Forking Truth

Every once in a while a new M&M’s Flavor other than the classics of Plain and Peanut is OK or Very Good. I would rate the Strawberry Milk Chocolate M&M’s OK. This is the first OK New flavor in a long forking time for me.

Once you open the Strawberry Milk Chocolate M&M’s bag you get the aroma of real chocolate and strawberries.

I thought they might be pink inside but the M&M’s just look like regular Plain M&M’s inside.

They kind of remind me of strawberry flavored milk I drank when I was a child…but with chocolate.

These M&M’s actually taste like chocolate and sort of like strawberries without a weird aftertaste that I normally get when I try a new variety of M&M’s. That’s the BIG difference between this new flavor and lots of the other limited edition flavors I tried. No weird after taste here.

Strawberry Milk Chocolate M&M’s are not Forking Bad and are “Worth a Fork.”

The Forking Truth

There is a lot of hype for Patti La Belle’s Sweet Potato Pies that are sold at Walmart for $3.48. How good can a $3.48 pie taste? In fact this pie is so popular that instead of being a seasonal offer it’s being offered all year long and other Patty La Belle desserts will be offered too. So sometime last month I decided to give the Patti La Belle Sweet potato pie a try.

I don’t eat sweet potato pies very often but have tried them out at restaurants. I also don’t eat pumpkin pies very often either at the most only two slices a year at holiday time.  I am comparing this store purchased Sweet Potato Pie to store purchased pumpkin pies that I try at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

The pie is a little hard to get out if the box. You’d never expect some sort of high quality glue holding the box together from Walmart. I almost couldn’t get the forking pie out of the box.

Part of the crust is crimped and some of the crust is just smooth on the ends. It says on the box for a fresh baked taste to heat the pie up at 300 degrees F for 10-20 minutes so I give it a try that way.

I taste it warmed up.

I think the most different thing about the pie is the texture of the sweet potato filling. It’s not as custardy something like a boxed Mrs Smith’s Pumpkin Pie or a Costco boxed pumpkin pie. The filling is softer and lighter. The crust is flaky and taste sort of floury. The main flavor in the filling taste like maybe fresh grated nutmeg and then you get one other spice in the background like possibly cinnamon. You don’t get that warm clove taste or snappy ginger taste like in some but not all pumpkin pies. I thought the pie was good but it did leave a really sweet taffy kind of taste as the finish in my mouth.

So I tried it a second time but room temperature this time. This time I got the more custardy feel that I’m used to. I thought the nutmeg flavor came out more for me at room temperature and I didn’t get that sweet after taste this time. I thought the crust lacked a natural butter taste that I prefer in pie crust but was still flaky and not like wet cardboard like most store purchased pies. I preferred the pie at room temperature.

The Forking Truth is that It’s a pretty good pie for $3.48 comparing it to other machine made store purchased pies.

The Forking Truth

My home came with all GE Monogram Appliances. My first problem was that my dishwasher had a slow leak and ruined my cabinets and flooring and trim. The dishwasher and home were under warranty so the dishwasher was replaced and some but not all repairs were done.

I also had a problem with my GE Monogram Wall Oven. It kept shutting off so the GE repairman replaced my control panel and touch pad for $300.00. My oven still kept shutting itself off. This time the GE repairman does a visual inspection. He finds the problem this time. My oven had an incorrect connector wire that caught on fire and was burned out. It was replaced with a correct ceramic connector that only cost less than $10.00. I spent the $300.00 on a new control touch and control pad I didn’t need due to the GE repairman’s diagnosis.

The biggest GE Monogram problem I had was my microwave oven that I seldom used. I moved into my house a couple days before Jan-1-07. In short 5 magnetrons have failed in my microwave oven between October 2007-2010. A magnetron I’m told is suppose to last 5 years. For some reason they wear out in GE Monogram Microwave ovens. It’s not free to get the GE repairman here and I spent quite a bundle on all those forking visits. Not to mention these were very expensive appliances that I paid for in the price of my home.

First GE Monogram Microwave repair Oct 25th-07 -replaced magnetron

Second Microwave repair June 30th -08 -replaced magnetron

Third Microwave repair November 13th -08 replaced magnetron

Forth Microwave repair October 26th -09 replaced magnetron

A few months latter the microwave stopped working again. Guessing it’s the magnetron again.

I asked and actually begged GE to replace my microwave oven since it was a defective lemon of an appliance. A magnetron should last 5 years but they were not understanding and wouldn’t replace my Microwave Oven.

I spoke to someone named Tommy from GE who only offered me 50% off parts and labor or a discount to purchase a new GE microwave oven. Yet I would have to find a trim kit on my own. I checked the discount Tommy offered me at my local appliance store and the discount turned out to be  very minimal.

I decided to throw out my (over $1,000.00) microwave oven and had a couple hundred dollar Frigidaire Microwave Oven installed. I haven’t had any trouble with my Frigidaire Microwave Oven so far. it’s been working great for years and actually works much better.

Currently I’ve had some trouble with the interior plastic cracking in my GE Monogram Refrigerator.

The egg tray also feel apart a few years back.

Every day I wonder how long my dishwasher will work because the screws holding it together are rusted.

Currently my lower GE Monogram Oven shuts off while on. I haven’t had it repaired yet at this time because it’s an intermittent problem and I have to wait till it’s worst so a repairman can witness it’s not working. At the time of this post it works about 80% of the time. I also don’t use the lower oven often.

I’ve also had a repair to the GE Monogram Refrigerator over the past year or so. I didn’t document it and  I just forgot what it was but I do have the repair bill on file.

From my experience

GE Customer Relations are not understanding.

GE Appliance Repair is NOT accurate diagnosing repairs.

GE Appliances are NOT QUALITY.

NOT Worth a FORK!
