The Picky Glutton

Critic — London eating at the cheap and mid-price end, with unusual depth on regional Chinese, Uyghur, Turkish and other cooking that the mastheads under-cover.

a long-running independent London review blog (since 2010) that eats multiple times before publishing ("consistently springy then tender across all my visits"), rates out of five, publishes what to order AND what to skip, and prints the average spend. The writing is evaluative and often critical, which is the opposite of listicle behavior.
