  18. Love it that your wedding photo has made it big time! Pity about the nasty comment at the end, but I guess it’s all a matter of opinion.

  25. I had a bit of a rant on Helen’s blog about the article, so here I’ll just say that you look gorgeous, and you’ll be running our country soon, I’m sure. :P

    — Hannah    Jan 24, 03:33 PM    #

  26. congrats on being used as the banner! such a cute picture!

    however, to an extent,i kind of think he had a point, i am tired of reading glowing reviews and then noting at the end that the meal was sponsored by the restaurant.
    plus it’s boring to read nicey-nicey blogs all the time.
    puts me off my food! :P

  27. Aww Suze, nice pics of you and the wedding but obviously the writer had another agenda. Am I the only one who take offence to the implications that most of us are wannabes writers and are out for freebies? Yes, I am an amateur blogger, I love my food, I don’t use flash in restaurant and I vent when it is called for. But unlike the American food critics, I am a nobody but I call a spade a spade! I don’t destroy people’s livelihood over a meal either. I mean wth is Pat Nourse anyway? Pfft!! Never heard of him!

  28. Awesome getting your faces (and butts) in the Tele! Did anyone explain to the poor journo that the backs to the camera thing is actually an injoke, hehe!

    — Moya    Jan 24, 11:37 PM    #

  29. Hi Susan, I had an awesome weekend, nice wedding pics.

    — CeritaSejati    Jan 24, 11:59 PM    #

  30. Congradulations! Looks awesome, and it looks so fresh!
    Jess : )

  31. What a lovely wedding picture – as if it was made to be a banner :)

    — Shannon Laird    Jan 25, 01:07 PM    #

  32. Awww. looks great Suze. I don’t read the Tele, but going to check out that article now. Yay, you’re even more famous now :)

    — shaz    Jan 25, 01:56 PM    #

  33. Congratulations!! Interesting article, but I don’t understand the last part. Maybe someone should sue a blogger…for what?

    — Lisa@ButteryBooks    Jan 26, 06:06 AM    #

  34. He sounds a little bit crabby at the end. Plus how many people actually use their flash to take photos of food?

    — Daphne    Jan 26, 09:58 AM    #

  35. Congrats! Awesome pic

    — Karen (missklicious)    Jan 26, 12:23 PM    #

  36. What an intriguing article – congrats on the mention and larger than life pic! I think you got the good PR parts and escaped the whipping by the sound of it!

    — forager @ The Gourmet Forager    Jan 27, 03:20 PM    #

  37. Woohoo – congrats on making it into the paper – you must have been super excited to see it.

    The guy’s just probably afraid for his job – there are heaps of bloggers out there that write better than he does. Beside we all don’t do the “review thang!” Sour grapes I taste!!

    — Cate    Jan 29, 05:56 PM    #

  38. Hmmmm…… I started my blog for me, not to get an audience. The ride has been fun, but I am not after a free meal nor do I try to upset my fellow diners by using a flash. I like to tell it as I see it.

    This is my escape from my real job which needs escaping at times and is my hobby and my pleasure. Plus I have met some awesome people along the way.

    Suze well done on the mention and the big pic!!
