freedom of food


last week s. irene virbila, @sirenevirbila, food critic of the la times showed up to newly opened restaurant, red medicine, in beverly hills. she was ousted by one of the partners and was asked to leave. upon leaving, the partner snapped a picture of her and posted it all over twitter and their website along with the reason why they asked her to leave. the picture and statement are no longer on their website but basically the article was stating their reasons on kicking her out. after finding this out, i commend red medicine's partner for doing this. doing it for ALL the chefs, sous chef, cooks and wait staff of any restaurant or hotel. you see, s. irene virbila is nothing but a bias foodie who loves to eat. if she doesn't like your food, she will let it know. i completely understand "freedom of speech" and she is allow to write whatever she wants. but sometimes her reviews are too harsh and very unnecessary.  i have witness first hand due to her bad review, our restaurant chef from a 5 star 5 diamond hotel was fired because she gave us a bad review. restaurants lose customers and then it closes down. she has been known to "make or break" you. she deserves to be kicked out and having her picture be posted all over the internet.  i, myself is posting a picture of her. i am a big believe in karma, and she got what she deserves.
