Who is BOR?

The Bend Oregon Restaurants Blogger, or BOR, is just your typical average fan of going out to eat at most of the dining options in Bend, Oregon. I have always loved going out to eat. But, for a long time when I went out to a restaurant I would typically go to the same few restaurants and get the same few dishes. I’m a creature of habit. I wanted to try new places and I started reading local papers for their recommendations. After trying out the places they recommended, I was not happy. I don’t understand how a person could provide a review of an entire restaurant by trying a few dishes.

On top of that, the reviews I read all seemed to be overly positive for restaurants that every one in Bend knows is not as good as they said.

This is why I started writing my blog. I write about the dish that I tried. That dish or dishes are all I can comment on since I that is all I have tried. I don’t try to get into the history of the owners or whatever drama is going on with the restaurant business. I don’t like discussing service unless it is consistently poor or always amazing visit after visit. Sometimes talking about service sneaks in but I try to keep it out as staff changes so frequently but my reviews stay online for good.

I write my own opinion of the dish or dishes that I try and I pay with my own money. The money that this site makes from ad revenue goes to charity such as Neighbor Impact that helps to feed the needy. I figure that since this is a food blog, donating to a charity that helps to feed the hungry is a great match.

I do not really care what you think of my reviews, I only try to entertain and inform. If I like a dish, I’ll let you know. If I don’t…I’ll really let you know. You can still feel free to email me if you want to chew me out, congratulate me, announce a food related event, or just to tell me that I rock.

Love,

-BOR
