I just ate at the worst restaurant of my life! I've been there three times, and every time it's been the same. How do I deal with my frustration?

Dear Disgruntled Food Eater:
First of all, you deserve that lousy meal. If it's your third time eating at a crummy place, I have no sympathy for you.
Second of all, write a review of your restaurant, and post it on your blog AND an online site where you can post reviews. I think yelp.com is one such site. Here are some tips for reviewing a restaurant:
- Type of food and price range.
- Is this fast food, buffet-style, restaurant, fine dining, etc.? Also, be sure to inform readers about what type of food is served. Is it Chinese? Mexican? Sushi? BBQ? A combination?
- Food quality.
- How does the food measure up to what you would reasonably expect? For example, don’t slam a fast food place for not providing a high-quality chicken salad.
- Service.
- Consider helpfulness, attitude, promptness, wait-time, etc.
- Décor (furniture, design, layout).
- Also be sure to mention level of cleanliness.
- Ambience and atmosphere(vibe).
- What kind of music is playing? Include a discussion on what the clientele is like. How are people dressed? Is the crowd young and single, families, business folks, college kids, etc? Is it crowded or empty? Is there a rush hour?
