Restaurateur (see comments) Phil Romano has agreed to drop his lawsuit against the Dallas Morning News over its review of his local eatery, Il Mulino, in exchange for the paper’s promise to run a second review of the restaurant in coming months. “While [reviewer Dotty] Griffith handed out 4-star ratings for service and ambience, Mr. Romano took offense at her criticism of some of the restaurant’s main dishes, including entrees featuring its Bolognese and vodka sauces.” We covered the case Aug. 24, 2004. (”Restaurateur, News settle review lawsuit”, Dallas Morning News, Dec. 17)(via Romenesko).

They’re going to review it again? How’s that going to go? With apologies to Rodney Dangerfield:
“You’re crazy.”
“If you don’t mind, I’d like a second opinion.”
“All right. You’re ugly, too.”
