Hello from JLB: Love (and fried dough) is in the air
Catch up on the latest food and restaurants news from Naples to Sanibel to North Fort Myers with JLB.
With Valentine s Day behind us and Mardi Gras ahead of us, today is a sweet in-between day. We ve got leftover candy hearts to tide us over until we can pick up our king cakes and paczkis and maybe some beignets for good measure.
Fat Tuesday, indeed.
The best part of this newsletter: You can eat while scrolling. Keep those chocolate truffles close and let s dig into the latest in food from around Southwest Florida.
The change is meant to make reviews more transparent and more ethical. It gives readers and restaurants actual
humans they can go to with grievances, queries, praise and condemnation. Those things should go both ways. It s only fair.
No other aspect of our review process is changing.
Here s how we operate:
Reviews are never scheduled
We visit restaurants unannounced, meaning we make reservations, when required, under other names. We don t give restaurants time to prepare for our arrival. A restaurant can request a review, but we are not required to give one. Reviews are written at the sole discretion of the critics. Our reviews are not influenced by advertising or any relationship a restaurant may have with our staff.

Hello from an unveiled JLB: Or should I say, hello from . me
Now that I ve been unveiled as Jean Le Boeuf, I can write these newsletters as myself. So Hello! from Annabelle Tometich.
How would JLB say this?
The Jean Le Boeuf pseudonym has been an extension of me for so long (15 years and counting), I don t quite know where I end and JLB begins.
Now, JLB has been unveiled as yours truly, among others.
In case you missed the news last week, I, Annabelle Tometich, am Jean Le Boeuf. Andrew Atkins of the Naples Daily News is JLB, too. And there are many more JLB writers who ve preceded us.

Jean Le Boeuf
We are, by some feat of sorcery, almost at the end of January. And I, by some feat of amnesia, am just now realizing I haven t newsletter-ed you since 2020.
I ve been thrown off my weekly newsletter game. My cycle is out of whack. And it seems I m not alone.
From a gush of early-winter restaurant openings, to the fall of chains and the rise of independent concepts nothing is as it usually is in the food world.
