Calling all you foodies – ChefDB

Friday, November 20th, 2009

The film industry has IMDB. Now the food industry has ChefDB. What a brilliant idea. It’s a database of restaurants, who works in them, where they’ve worked and related links.

Genius.

Now, you can track your favorite chefs. See when ratings started going up or down.. and why. You can see where else these same people have worked in the past, to find other restaurants that you might want to go to as well. Or where they are headed to in the future, so you can bookmark that as a place you want to try out.

Pure Genius.

Water please.

What’s the deal? I’m outraged at the level that some Singaporean eateries will stoop to. It’s not unheard of for restaurants out here not to serve ice water and only serve bottled water. I realize that they are running a business and that the margins on water are quite generous. But, ITS FREAKIN WATER FOLKS!! Raise prices elsewhere already.
