Grab some grub with your beats

OK, so I know if you're reading this blog, you like music. And ya know what goes with music? Food. Of course. (Maybe that's the Utica in me talking, but they're the two things I think Utica does best - food and music. Don't you agree?)

Speaking of food (and here comes the shameless solicit), have you heard about Fusion's Grub Grab?

Ahhh, well, it's our way of putting you to work and finding out about all the local eats we can't get to. Grub Grab asks you (our reader) to visit a local restaurant, review a dish and then have us reimburse you up to $10 for whatever you grub on. Sound like your thing? Then, mangia (that's Italian for eat) and follow these rules:

1. Be incognito. Don't announce you're reviewing. We want a totally unbiased review.
2. Take a picture of your dish. Take a picture of you.
3. Tell us what you think about what you grubbed by following this format:
The people: (Give your name, age and city of residence)
The place: (Give name of restaurant, address, hours, phone number)
The dish: (Give name and description of dish)
The cost: (List all items and total with tax)
Pros: (What was great about the décor, food, service, etc.?)
Cons: (What weren't you too keen on?)
Final word: (Overall take on the food, atmosphere and service)
4. Send your review to us - exactly in that format with your pics - to jedwards@uticaod.com.
5. Be honest and fair. If it makes you wanna puke, say so. If it's so good you need your fat pants, tell us.

Oh, one more thing, we have to pre-approve your submission before reimbursement or publication.

Now, go eat ... and tell me about it!
