So basically you're emplying that the average joe/ unwashed masses are served one type of food while restaurant critics get the good stuff (I assume they keep it in the back) thus the need for restaurant critic annomymity, thereby not allowing the restaurant to hoodwink said critic by serving him the good stuff and all the time he thinks that this is what EVERYONE gets to eat.
.... hmmm... those sneaky little buggers. Who knew?

Well thats it! Next time I go out to a restaurant I'm going to DEMAND I be served the good stuff that they save for restaurant critics, like Mr Gilchrist.
