Guess the mystery restaurant

When I checked my voice mail after I got in (after my flu shot, good girl, Elizabeth), I found that the former food editor had gotten a message she forwarded to me.

The person who called said, paraphrasing here, "I don't know if the Sun has a food critic or not, but if you do, I'd like to invite them to a fabulous new restaurant in Canton. They should call me." ...

Leaving aside the strangeness of her not finding out who the current food editor is, let alone the names of the restaurant critics, what do you think the restaurant is?

Oh hai thar sneaky spam.

Ah, very clever spam! Almost not spam.

Whomever this may be, it's not a very cool way to go about getting your restaurant off the ground. Sit tight EL or RG will be by soon enough. Also, if you haven't even opened yet, and you knew what were doing, why would you want a review so soon?

2400 boston st is hiring for new Resteraunt, check that out..

Thanks for getting your flu shot, Elizabeth--we are both doing our part to increase the "herd immunity." (Now why do I feel like bleating?)

It isn't that difficult to find out if the Sun has a restaurant critic. If you don't want to buy a paper and look, you could hit the website, or just call the library and ask.

Just calling the Sun shows an amazing level of either laziness or unconcern. Neither is impressive in a good way.

Canton...
