HI! I’m Uncle Dan. I like to eat food and do activities. I can’t remember all the things I do, so I created this website to document and review them. This way, when my friends ask if I liked the restaurant I ate at two years ago, or If I enjoyed that mini-golf place last year, I can pull up this site and find out! All reviews are my own opinion (with some input from my wife).
Equipment Review Methodology
I refuse to review anything until I’ve owned it for at least one year, and have gotten to know the equipment intimately. Very intimately.
Restaurant Review Methodology
My review of restaurants has two scores: Ambiance and Food. Ambiance accounts for 30% of the final rating, and food accounts for the other 70%. Food rating is a composite average of every dish I eat. I may tweak ratings each time I re-visit a particular location.
