I certainly agree that this article reads as if the author has some sort of personal problem with Blake. That is why I saw it more as a shock value piece than that of a real review because Dan's other reviews, for or against a place, don't seem to have the same animosity. Many others pointed it out as well but those comments have all been taken down.  Some of those commenters I'm sure knew Blake but I don't believe all of them did. Of course there is no way to say whether or not Dan does indeed know Blake on a personal level and if there is any discontent in that way but I would have to say that if it were at all true and Dan willingly used his journalistic power to attack Blake and his establishment then it is a truly unprofessional move and should be looked into by the Globe and Mail. It would be nice if Dan could clear the air on this one for all of us that are either in favour of the restaurant or not.
