Have been to Bluefin the past
2 nights. Shocked at
what a well oiled machine it seems to be the first 2 opening nights. Both quality of food and service has been outstanding. Tried the Fish tacos (great), shrimp cocktail(great), Ne Clam chowder (great) and creme brûlée. Could not have asked for better dishes. Yeah I am a fan !

Just my 2 cents but I'm not sure you were the target of the attackers. Don't leave. Some of us do appreciate your input.

I agree with Aloha, you should stay. Your posts are what they are supposed to be, your opinion.

I owe it to you that I rarely have to go inside a grocery store anymore so thanks. Either way, Take Care.

I think you misinterpreted Coach Ed's post. It wasn't about you. If you want my take on his post, PM me.

I agree with Nucky you should stay. He is correct - your posts are your opinion and there is nothing wrong with that. I don't think anyone was trying to single you out for having a condescending and pompous attitude or a self proclaimed superior taste. I know I personally feel that way about several posters.

I have to ask "Don't you think saying WPOS was a bit overboard?" (had to look it up in the Urban Dictionary)

Sorry if you feel that you have leave this site..... bye bye

CW, I have a feeling that it is possible that three people are using the Asianthree account. In all fairness, I never took any of those statements in this post as a shot at Him/Her/Them and also from time to time one of them has dealt out harsh words. I was the target twice. I let it go because it was their OPINION. It is also possible that the hurtful post has been removed?? Who knows??

I also know that the pale pink fish they pass off as Salmon is inferior and that the lobster is not fresh and usually overcooked and that clam strips are not clams but I also know I don't live in New England anymore so I am just making the best of it. All of the restaurants have decent choices to make and we enjoy dining out with our friends. It's about attitude.

Honestly, we don't go out to eat , when the food we make @ home blows most of the restaurants here out of the water--we go out for specific dishes that are too time consuming,(prep) and slow cooking--or for certain cuts of meat that are no longer available in the area

I "feel" two personalities too. One of them wears Jimmy Chu shoes and I have never met anyone in person who wears Jimmy Chu shoes. She says they are classic and last for years and I do understand that. I have kept a handbag my husband bought me for almost twenty years.

And I'll bet you don't mean a condescending,pompous, or superior attitude.
