I, personally, got my first bad review on tripadvisor; though I wasn't mentioned by name. Not the restaurant, but me. I take it I spent too much time talking to a table. I was either bored- because it was a slow night- or else they asked some questions and I babbled. They were obviously not happy and I sent them an apology.
If I ever do it to you, my dear reader, please let me know, even if it must be blatantly- I can be thick- that you would like me to leave your table. I'll be chagrined because of my being unobservant and dense, but I won't be hurt or upset by your desire to be left alone. After all, your pleasure is the reason we do what we do.

They missed out on a great spirit and a true chef. We just had the most magical meal we can remember at Shevek's. The food was beyond divine. It was creative, perfectly portioned, and we love your stories and details about how the meals and Shevek's came to be. We'll be coming down to Silver City just to return for another amazing dining experience!

PS: Do you ship your carrot cake? I'll give it a whirl, but I'm not sure I can get it even half way as good as yours!
ouch! But if this is the first time in all these years someone has been unhappy with you, you are still doing very, VERY, well.
We felt honored to have your attention and we learned so much! It doesn't get better for a true Foodee...
