		if i were to be absolutely truthful, i prefer the restaurant critic approach (not giles coren however).
		Having been a reviewer myself on a London listings magazine in the 70s, I can assure Cabrales that the job is an absolute piece of p..s.requiring no skills or knowledge whatsoever apart from a willingness to down a lot of mediocre meals (at that time at least).
		While the contents of this week's column (on The Connaught, which, apparently is expected to have deep burgundy and olive color schemes when it reopens) and writing style were a bit better than average for a Coren piece, the column continued to have a gimmick-like quality to it.

	A fashionable hatred \| Samizdata.net
		Coren's article, in particular, seems to be steeped in a sort of fashionable puritanism and also draws on a deeply suppressed need to be able to hate a particular group.
		Cydonia, Coren also calls for massive taxes on the fat, crackdowns on fast-food businesses, etc. He is all in favour of using the State to hit the overweight.
		Irony of the day: Coren's claim to fame is being the restaurant critic of the times.

		Faulks is a natural storyteller and though his is not the most exciting prose, he seamlessly synthesizes the scientific and the personal, the historical and the timeless.
		Giles Coren begins ``Winkler'' (Cape, 16.99 pounds, 312 pages) with the sweet sound of leather on willow as his eponymous protagonist drifts back to boarding-school days some 20 years earlier.
		In tone, Coren's novel is a discombobulating mix of the too- clever-by-half and the puerile.

		Giles is mad as hell, and if the server doesn't offer tap water before pushing expensive bottled water that likely comes from a tap anyway, a restaurant will get a zero in one of four rating categories.
		Coren said, an environmental atrocity, considering the fuel needed to ship something as heavy as water from so far.

		Times of London food commentator Giles Coren says no to bottled water in restaurants and says will penalize them if they insist on serving bottled water that serves no good purpose than create more waste.
		It is bottled in glass that is mostly thrown away and is stupidly heavy to freight, or in plastic which never, ever, decomposes and just goes to landfill or ends up in one of the “plastic patches” the size of Texas currently gyring in our oceans.
		Giles Coren says, nearly 3 Billion liters of bottled water is sold worldwide each claiming they come from a rare area, even though the difference between them is barely a minimum.

	BBC - collective - giles coren 'winkler'
		And sure enough, in detailing the many and obsessive dislikes of Winkler, his misanthropic 29-year-old protagonist, the opening of Coren’s debut novel smacks of an op-ed piece with a pinch of narrative thrown in.
		Anyone who has read Coren’s journalism, however, will know that he’s no mean humorist, and when Winkler’s plot is allowed to get into gear the sharp observations and episodic rants cease to jar and instead become complementary.
		By way of the Holocaust, the assault of a blind girl and his own pushing of a weighty lady under a Tube train, Winkler is launched on a journey of self-discovery which Coren steers more or less successfully from broad comedy towards something altogether more bittersweet.
