Click the Spoon

This weekend I decided to feed appropriate restaurant reviews from this blog to Urbanspoon. Urbanspoon is a site that aggregates restaurant reviews and provides restaurant-finding functionality to the iPhone. It has recently gotten some very high-profile exposure as Apple is promoting the Urbanspoon app on its iPhone commercials.

An Urbanspoon page for a restaurant features links to reviews from mainstream media and blogs as well as user input, plus a map. When you see the Urbanspoon graphic at the bottom of a post, you can click it to go to the page for the reviewed restaurant.

The strange Chinese restaurants of my dreams, however, have no Urbanspoon pages.
