More Blog Information

I know that we promised you two new reviews, but before we can get to publishing these reviews, we have decided that it would be in your best interests to go over the guidelines that we use in reviewing each restaurant.

Here are a few questions that we ask ourselves when we critique a dining establishment:

1. Appearance and First Thoughts - Is it sanitary? What portion of the dining public does the establishment cater to? Ambiance.

2. Front of the House - Was the host/hostess (if any) warm and friendly? Was the server knowledgeable and helpful?

3. The Kitchen - Was the food properly cooked (sanitation issues)? Was the food delivered in a timely manner (based on the type of eating establishment)? If the kitchen is visible (open kitchen type establishments), are the cooks adhering to proper sanitation and do they act professionally?

4. The Food - We judge the food through taste, presentation, value (monetary value), and in any other way we deem fit if needed.

Donations

We have just finished setting up a donation function on our blog via PayPal. We would like to assure you,the reader, that none of our donations will be used for personal gain. Below are a few ways that we will utilize your gracious donations:

1. The upkeep of our blog. (which is our main concern) (Current Monthly est. $6.00)
2. Travel Expenses [ex. gas, inter-island fare]
3. Food Expenses (Currently, we use our own pocket-money to fund our research)

We hope in time that 808FoodScene will become a self-sustaining website through gracious donations from our readers and in time, maybe even 808FoodBlog merchandise :)

Suggestions

We are always open to comments and suggestions. If you have a favorite eatery that you would like to share with us feel free to E-Mail us at Suggestions@808foodscene.net

Likewise, if you are the owner of an establisment and you would like us to stop by we will be more than happy to (just drop us an E-Mail at the address listed above).

I would also like to clarify that even though you have so graciously sent us an E-Mail, we may not get to review the establishment right away but will try our best to add it as a future destination.

At this time I would also like to state that we would like to keep our alias' anonymous. As we comment on both the good and less fortunate traits of an establishment, we would like our alias' to take the blame for any heat-- not us. So for the few who know our real identities, we ask that you please do not reveal them. If you have any hunches, we ask that you keep that a private matter.
