As we were heading towards its doorway our girls ran into someone from their church coming out and he heartedly recommended it. As had the Girl’s cousin the night before when she heard that we were going there. She and her Husband both like it as it as the food is good, not expensive and lots of Chinese people eat there, which is always a good sign that it is both good and authentic Chinese food. On top of that, they like it because it is also baby friendly too! (Although that last bit means nothing to me now!)
So when we finally went, we too found that it was not expensive, or snobbish as we had been led to believe; and we only wondered why it had taken us so long to check it out for ourselves.
What about you? Are you prepared to check some things out for your self?
I’m not talking about all things here. There are definitely some things that we should take the word of others for, no matter how small a minority they may be!
However for many other things, where a personal judgement rather than a moral one is being made, it might pay to check it out for yourself.
We deprived ourselves of the benefits of this place on the word of one or two people who were either incorrect or their information was well out of date. I am definitely not saying that you have to check everything out for yourself every time, but there are some things of a subjective nature that it might pay you to check out a little more thoroughly before you decide one way or the other. What say you?

This happens all the time when it comes to food joints. Heck the three of us in this apartment rarely agree when ordering in food. But when someone warns you the food may not sit right with you, go prepared! But when it's just an opinion about attitudes, etc... take it as a grain of salt, don't put too much weight in it. Maybe the person was rude, maybe the waitperson was rude, maybe it was just miscommunication or misinterpretation. And we all have our differences in taste. And what's expensive to me might be cheap to you. I guess what I'm trying to say is, take it for what it is, not the holy grail!
Again Lynx you summed up in a few words what I was trying to say. Sometimes you just have to try for yourself when it involves a subject of a subjective nature. Thanks again for your Input.
