The reviewer is obviously determined to "kill" the restaurant. Perhaps s/he has a problem with the owners not cannot see the success of others. The reviewer appears to know more about Nepal than about the food that the resataurant serves. As for me, I have NEVER been to this restaurant. But from what I gather from these posts, I do know the Nepali owner -- Mr. Yonzon. I am not partcularly a fan of him, but -- Nepali to Nepali -- I wish him success in this venture. Still, I think this review is vicious, cruel and mean and just plain stupid. It is NOT written by a food-lover. But don't believe me. Just look at the evidence - and decide for yourself. Look at this LONG list of negative phrases in this short review: Bottom line? I would visit the resatuarant and make my own decisions, and NOT trust a review like this. The LONG list of negative phrases in this short review: 1. "begins the disappointment" 2. "lounge suggest nothing" 3. "a mediocre translation of OM" 4 "but no AAH to the palate" 5. "total waste and a poor" 6. "pretentiously glorifies" 7. "The starter . . . tastes dull. 8. "nothing modern to American food" 9. "sad and petrifying is the Buddha" 10."noises and the horrifying deconstruction of an old tradition" 11. "Buddha must be crying somewhere…" 12. "destruction of all that could have been good." 13. "rescue it from the rude owner." 14. "The fusion leaves a bad taste in the mouth.' 15. "a bad taste in the intellect." 16. "a misplaced restaurant at Harvard Square." 17. "insults [the the intellectual capital of the world]" Need anything more be more said? oohi ashu
