Discussion of:
Vincente's on Kirkwood
It's no secret Italians love to cook. And love to eat. And love to feed those around them. And looking locally, you'd be hard pressed to find a bet...

As the guy who signs off on Rob's expenses, I can assure you of this – the meal was NOT comped. Matt

dewriter is ASSUMING that Kalesse's meal (s) were comped, however the review does NOT say this. The fish and beer bread appetizers are complimentary and have been for 30 yrs. As a frequent client of Vincente's I KNOW Kalesse's review is accurate.

Just remember, when the restaurant owner knows you are a food writer and he feeds you FOR FREE, the piece you write is NOT a review. A comped meal means you are writing an advertisement for the eatery, and nothing bad will be said about the place. That does not necessarily make the joint bad, just know the story is already skewed in the restaurant's favor.
