Table Talk, Top 10 and your comments online

BrasTatin.jpg

 

Here's the link to my Table Talk column today, in case you wanted to read more about the changes at Brasserie Tatin. I also talk about the new Restaurant Sabor in Timonium.

And here's an interesting thing. I noticed today (it may be the first time) that last week's Top 10 with comments that appeared in the print edition today is online. The whole idea originally was to have it only in the print edition, because it had already appeared on my blog. ...

 

Those of you who want to check to see if your comment made it into print can now do so without buying the paper. Don't take the ones chosen too seriously though, because the higher ups don't like us to be as wild and crazy in the paper.

EL -- the Top 10 list, print version, has been appearing online from the beginning, as far as I can recall. Sounds like you really need that warm time in BA. ;-)

So where are the online comments that were printed in the paper? I've never seen them.

Did you click on the link? EL

Duh. I thought that link went back to the old post. I'm afraid of time travel, beecause I might kill my former self.

I have to admit that I never look at the print edition and spend about 20 seconds on the Sun home page most of the time, but I have never seen the print top tens online -- I've looked. And what's with the Sun's search feature? It's useless -- still. So I googled "taste elizabeth large's top ten" [that looks funny now, but that's what I copied off the web page] and found today's version. I also found previous week's versions but almost none of them on the Sun site. Such as this one, where I somehow showed up at newsday.com

Or this one at the Sun-Sentinel

I'm so confused. I think I may have messed up the space-time continuum when I inadvertently tme travelled to last year. I need a hug and some tranya.

Well, a Google search turned up a very early (if not the very first) print edition Top 10, from August 27, on fish and chips. (I was quoted in that one, which is why I recall it.) The direct Google link, which is supposed to go to the Sun's website, detours for some reason to the Orlando Sentinel, but the Google cache of the original post can be accessed from this link.

I ring up Balok for you Owlie...

I can't see why folks are so big on Woodberry Kitchen. It's barnlike echo chamber and inconsistent food left us cold, while two other wonderful nearby restaurants keep getting ignored. Dogwood Cafe has delicious meals made with local ingredients and the Carlyle Club has wonderful food to match the flawless atmosphere.

We must drink. This is tranya. I hope you relish it as much as I.
