Writing a bad review on TripAdvisor, Urban Spoon could land you in court - MELBURNIANS might want to think twice before writing bad online restaurant reviews after an Adelaide man was threatened with legal action for a scathing review he wrote on travel site TripAdvisor. Law graduate Julian Tully was told last week by an Adelaide pizzeria owner he would face legal action if a review of his business which compared it to the plague, and provided “the worst service and experience”, was not removed from TripAdvisor by the end of the month.
Which ratings and reviews of restaurants are the phoney ones?

Polish President serves EUR 12 wine to king - A bottle of 2011 Tauzinat l'Hermitage Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, which was served at the banquet, retails for around EUR 12.
“This choice shows that Poland, as many other European countries, is watching their budget,” said sommelier Eric Boschman on the website of the Belgian le Soir daily. “I do not have anything against this wine,” the wine expert said, “but it does not stand out, because we are not having an old friend over for lunch, but an official banquet with the King and Queen of Belgium.” Le Soir’s Marc Roisin writes that “serving more expensive and better-known wines is the more conservative approach: they are sure to please, there is no risk.” “Finding an affordable wine, which is pleasing, is a step that requires more dedication and research, and could be considered a sign of greater respect for the guests,” Roisin continued.

Increasingly, food start-ups are getting critical guidance from the same people who created and nurtured some of yesterday’s biggest grocery store hits. These advisers are the marketers who brought us Lunchables and increased demand for Coca-Cola.
Is there any point to wine points? - Scores are a hugely popular way to judge wine and a high number on a shelf sells bottles – that’s why Lidl pay a Master of Wine to garland their bottles with impressive-looking numbers. We can all see the drawbacks to this: spite ratings, fakery – and can you take seriously the scores of someone who is paid by the retailer in question to give them? But my question is simpler. Can you trust numerical rating systems more than linguistic ones? Are they more useful or more honest? Is there any point to points?
