Food Critic Goes Tagging
Don't know whether or not to be honored by this "ode to my criticism" or horrified:
Police arrested a man who allegedly found a messy way to complain about restaurants where he believed he had received poor service or been served bad food: graffiti.
Miguel Camacho, 29, was caught Tuesday night after eluding police for six months, police said. He was suspected in more than 60 spray-painting incidents.
Camacho scrawled his trademark tag, "VAMP," on the outside of restaurants where he had negative experiences, said Lt. Thomas Conforti of the NYPD's 112th Precinct.
His targets included a pizzeria in Queens that Camacho said served bad pizza, and a Chinese take-out restaurant in Rego Park where he believed he had been overcharged.
Mr. Camacho: If you really want to be a food critic, I strongly urge you to put down your spray-paint cans and start up a blog. But then again, with all of the press you've garnered, perhaps you can actually spin this into a TV or radio show.
Hmm...
Mr. Camacho: You need a sidekick? If so, drop me a line.
