Websites like Yelp and Google Review were exploding just as dedicated undercover restaurant critics all but vanished from Canada’s major papers. Host Samira Mohyeddin asks what do we lose and what do we gain when anyone can become an online restaurant critic? And whose opinion should we trust?
Guests include Amy Pataki, retired food critic for the Toronto Star and Corey Mintz, writer and food reporter.
