How do people who review restaurants overcome personal taste preference bias?
I think that most great reviewers will always have some taste bias, and that will be part of how they review foods. If it was not for the individual pallet of each reviewer then it would not be a good review. It allows the reader to relate to the reviewer better and really get a sense for what they are tasting if they are good reviewer. The reviewer should always take their professional experience and knowledge with them and put it into every review they complete. As a reader you should almost be able to taste the food that the reviewer is writing about, almost smell the scents that the reviewer is smelling, and see the beauty of the delicious dish as well..
Personal taste preference is what makes your opinion a valuable opinion and what will set a great reviewer apart from an ok reviewer.
i think a good reviewer clarifies the style of restaurant and has a framework by which it reviews eg a lunchtime restaurant is different to fine dining experience in a a very expensive restaurant and as a consequence diners have different expectations regarding the whole dining experience. Most reasonable restaurants offer a choice of meals in an effort to cover a broad variety of tastes and it's within these parmaters that a reviewer works.

I dont know what country you are in but KFC in england is just like fast food and to me, fast food is rubbish. Too much unhealthy overpowering sauces and the chicken is always coated in huge amounts of fat.Give me a plain barbecued chicken leg any day.

In my opinion, fast food is better than fresh food for 3 reasons. First, it's your best friend when you're hungry. You can take it anywhere and you don't have to cook it. You can warm it in 2 minutes by putting it into a microwave. Second, it's easy to buy fast food. You can buy it from...
