AmaZagats eminyakeni yamuva futhi ahambele ukuhlola abahambi emahhotela ase-US, izindawo zokubhuka, ama-spas, izindiza nezinkampani eziqashisayo zemoto.
Ukuthengisa nge $ 9.95 futhi phezulu, iziqondiso ezincane, eziphathekayo sezibe ibhizinisi lamadola ayizigidi eziningi. Ngakho kungani amaZagats angasebenzisa imali eyizigidi eziyi-1 ukwakha iwebhusayithi ukuze bakwazi ukunikeza umsebenzi wabo onzima mahhala?
I-"Wall Street Journal" icaphuna isitatimende sikaTim Zagat ngokuthi, "Uma singakwenzi ... omunye umuntu angazi ukuthi lena yindlela ephumelelayo kakhulu yokubandakanya inqwaba yabantu futhi abalethe inqubo efanayo babe.

Ukuhlola ngokucophelela umhlahlandlela we-Boston, kulula ukucinga izindawo zokudlela nganoma yiliphi inani lezinombolo zokulinganiswa kwe-Zagat, kufaka phakathi ukudla, izindleko, indawo kanye nezici ezikhethekile.

Izintandokazi eziphezulu eziphezulu zibukeka futhi.
Nazi imiphumela yokusesha isampula: Ngesikhathi ngifaka izindlela zami zokusesha, ibhokisi lokubhala ngakwesokudla lilandele ukhetho lwami, ngakha ngokuqinile ukuqinisekiswa kwesicelo sami: "Ngifuna indawo yokudlela enezinga lokudla elingama-20 noma elingcono , sinokulinganiswa kokuhlobisa okungu-15 noma okungcono, kunesilinganiso senkonzo esingu-19 noma esingcono, sidinga i-$ 45 noma ngaphansi, ku-Harvard Square. " Umphumela uma ngiqhafaza "ngitholele wona": izindawo eziyisithupha zokudlela ongakhetha kuzo, neCafe Celador umdlalo ophezulu.
Ngenkathi ngichofoze isixhumanisi seCafe Celador ukuze ngifunde kabanzi mayelana nale ndawo yokudlela, ngacelwa ukuba ngibhalisele ubulungu bamahhala. Ubulungu bukhululekile kuze ku-September 1. Kwenzekani emva kukaSeptemba 1? I-A yet to be deduced fee izokhokhiswa, futhi amalungu azokwaziswa nge-imeyili futhi angakhetha ukungena. Ukulinganisa izinzuzo ze-premium mahhala manje ngeke kubophe isivakashi nganoma iyiphi indlela. Izilinganiso zokudlela, imisebenzi yokusesha, ukuthenga kanye nezinye izici eziningi zesayithi zizohlala zikhululekile. Ziyini izinzuzo zobulungu?
Ngasheshe ngabuyela ekhasini leCafe Celador, lapho ngakwazi khona ukufunda ukuthi "Efihliwe emgwaqweni ohlangothini, lesi 'sothando' se-French bistro esinezansi 'ezincane kakhulu eCambridge' siza 'nesicathulo nesitayela' futhi 'njalo ukushintsha imenyu 'ehlanganisa izithako' ezithakazelisayo 'nezithi' ezintsha 'zesiNtaliyane nesiMedithera ....
