4.0 out of 5 stars Probably the funniest restaurant review ever., March 27, 1999
By A Customer
I don't know if this is the same guide to New Orleans restaurants by Richard Collin that I checked out from a library a few years ago, but if it is, than it qualifies as the funniest restaurant review guide ever written. It was written in the 1970's so, other than the famous Brennans, Galatoires, etc., it would be dated now. However, the sections worth reading are where Collin describes the mediocre and downright terrible places- it is absolutely side-splitting. He describes one place ("The Paul Gross Chicken Coop" as I remember, I believe), as "quite possibly the foulest smelling restaurant in the city." Another is condemned for the total ineptitude of its' staff (one waiter accidently set his own apron on fire while at Collins' table). One sandwich shop serves "watery Northern coffee." This is wonderful.
