Fearless Critic 2010 is here
The best local restaurant evaluation guide -- Fearless Critic Houston Restaurant Guide 2010 -- is now available. The brutally honest restaurant guide is put together by a group of undercover local critics who "dine incognito, don't accept freebies, and don't pull punches" in rating a cross-section of 450 restaurants in the Houston metropolitan area.
Da Marco, Tony's and Catalan take the top three spots this time around (the guide is published every other year), but one of the aspects about Fearless Critic that I most enjoy is that it rates restaurants based upon the quality of the food relative to cost, so many not-so-high-priced restaurants rate far better than many expensive restaurants. For example, Huynh, a relatively inexpensive Vietnamese restaurant in downtown, comes in at 7th in the rankings.
You won't always agree with their evaluations, but the Fearless Critics make their case well. It's definitely worth the eleven buck cost currently on Amazon. Check it out.

OMG, can I buy a guide that ranks a mediocre restaurant in the top 3? Maybe for their insight into some hidden gems.

Huynh is a wonderful, wonderful restaurant. Best tofu lemongrass in the city.
