While I'm aware that the majority of you own a whole lot of common sense, I am truly flummoxed by a particular group of people who NEED pictorial evidence of how good the food is before they're willing to give said food a chance. Nevermind that the pictures/photos are mere illusions and do not actually depict what the place has to offer. This riles me up to no end. I've always insisted on letting one's food speak for itself and not a bunch of fancy *illustrations* that have no doubt been through endless rounds of art direction and meticulous photoshopping (hence their awesomeness of course) but I'm gutted to know that because I lack all these gorgeous, professionally taken, (hi-res 10000000dpi) pictures, no one would even give us the time of the day.
Pfft and double pfft to YOU who eat with your eyes.
And yes, Pi Pon's incomparable $3.50 Pad Thai kicks the char kway teow's arse next door anytime.
