Our reviewers are independent and NO gratuities,
favours or free food are accepted in exchange for a good profile
or even inclusion in any of the cheapeats books. If one of our contributors
must identify themselves to the restaurants - it will only happen
AFTER they have paid for their meal.
That way we are sure that the service and food
we get is the service everyone gets.
3. How do restaurants get included
in cheapeats?
Restaurant have to be recommended and they have
to meet the cheapeats criteria.
We ask everyone - where
do you eat cheap? Cab drivers, financial planners, cops, school
teachers, politicians, couriers, kids on skateboards. We even asked
the head of the Bank of Canada. We
take recommendations anyway they come - word of mouth, through this
site, and from everyone we talk to.
If a place is recommended and we don't already
know about it, our contributors are eager to check it out and make
sure the cheapeats
criteria are met.
No, the current edition of cheapeats toronto
includes 365 restaurants across the entire GTA - from Mississauga
to Scarborough, the lake to Thornhill. If the restaurant you are recommending
is in a region not listed, just let us know - webmaster@cheapeatstoronto.com
Yes - at least one member of the cheapeats
toronto team has eaten at each restaurant in the book. If a recommendation
comes in through the website, or by word of mouth,
and we don't already know about it, our contributors are eager to check
it out and make sure the cheapeats
criteriaare met.
We make sure to check all the restaurants out a couple of times before
they are seriously considered for inclusion in cheapeats.
We asked. We contacted every celebrity we
could think of or find... from the Prime Minister to Mike Bullard, from
Rick Mercer to Dan Ackroyd, from Alanis Morrisette to the Leafs, and
all the FoodTV chefs we could get.
