Hate yuppie food like goat cheese pizza?  Do you think that pesto is overrated?  The Hungry Engineer tries to find cuisine in the greater San Francisco Bay Area that “regular” engineers (and other people too) will find tasty.

My computer was away for repairs for a few days so this is my first chance to add any new reviews from my vacation in South Carolina. The downtime was supposed to be only 3 days, but because of a "routing inconsistency" (their term) by Airborne Express it took 2 days longer. So the last weeks' reviews will be filtering in over the next few days.

I'm back in California and have already done some more San Mateo Reviews, but I'm not done with some of the South Carolina ones. My apologies to my readers. The new reviews will be posted soon.

My hosting service (hostingfly.com) has been down most of the last 10 days. Everyone still tells me that they can't get to it. I'm still having problems too. Hostingfly refuses to even guess a date that it will be back up 100%.

I've given up on hostingfly.com. Their downtime is over 50% and their customer support is lacking. I've moved everything over to Hurricane Electric. There's some config issues so far, but at least the site is up.

I've added the search page now (see above links). Also, due to popular demand, I've changed the order of the latest three reviews so that the latest is on the top rather than the bottom.

Hostingfly refused to respond to my emails, so after too many non-responses, I told my credit card company to refund the money as I was not getting what I paid for. Hostingfly retaliated by stealing my domain name (I had only had the hosting part of the money refunded, not the domain name fee -- they took back the name even though they had my domain fee in their pockets -- BASTARDS!). I was forced to wait until the domain name expired before I could get it back. I will try to continue to review restaurants, but with a new baby, my days of going out to restaurants will be limited.
