Ratings for new places no longer require at least 10 reviews

For as long as I can remember new places on TGTG didn’t show a star rating until at least 10 reviews were submitted. I’ve seen two new places this week that already have average ratings listed with a few as 6 reviews. I wonder what the threshold is now; maybe five reviews?

Thought this $45 value bag from Radius Butcher & Grocery in Austin might be skimpy until I checked to see that Amazon sells these Vandy Classic Potato Chip 5oz bags two for $29.99. So it’s at least a $15 product retail. Wowzers.

Glad I got to try it as I love pretty much all chips. I’m only disappointed that it doesn’t taste much different or better than what I usually eat. It’s beef tallow-fried, ancient crunch, Herbs de Provence, all that jazz. Best by date was 4/18/26 so it must not be a hot seller. Someone called this place our neighborhood’s Erewhon. 😆

Add in the $15 Smoked Fish Dip and Bacon Jam, looks like it hit $45 on the mark. 🎯

This was a really good meal for $4.99: steak, sautéed greens and a shredded potato cake topped with an egg. Chef’s kiss! 🥩 👨‍🍳 💋
