The Humble Pie Award
The Bluebird
We like a restaurant that can admit its mistakes, so when the Bluebird stopped organizing its wine list by climate (a ridiculous practice nearly every critic in town bashed), we were impressed. But we’d hate to see this great gastropub become known for its only misstep. So, Bluebird, let us reiterate our love for you: We love your great beer selection. We love your industrial-chic decor. We love how you keep your excellent flatbreads, charcuterie and pastas so affordable. And we love your wine selection—even more now that we can actually find what we want. 1749 N Damen Ave, 773-486-2473.

Really-why would you guys make people that you want to read your website click on each topic. I wanted to provide this to visiting friends but their visit was over by the time I got through all the pages... Get a new format, really...
Do you not like me? Am I this bad of a person? Reading this was like playing pong. Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo slowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!
Wow, not only is your list bad but you made me waste my time by clciking on each one...nice work.
I HATEclicking on each restaurant --this is so tedious I won't be back-- I imagine that your advertisers buy space according to how many clicks you can FORCE your readers to go through to get anywhere...and that's why you have made this site impossible for your readers--better to find a less annoying way to increase revenue... This site is RIDICULOUS!
You want a comment on the article? No can do. When I see I have to wade through at least 20 pages I just stopped at page one. What are folks thinking? Have you no respect for those who visit your site?
Golly, the set-up of this article is painful and exceedingly user-unfriendly. A one-page list with links to details would be a lot more usable, as others have commented.
I'm losing the will to live. Just show the list for crying out loud. If I want to read your critics justification give me a link to go to the article
this is the worst designed web site ever. How are you supposed to read this article?
Good grief... no simple list of all the winners? I'm supposed to click through one at a time? previous writer nailed it: there isn't enough time in my life.
We live in the south suburbs and are looking for somewhere "new" to go to for our anniversary. What do you think of this restaurant, and is it worth the trip? Thank you. We are going tomorrow eve.
I agree that trying to read this article is the pits on this new site. Very slow to load, and that's especially annoying when there's only one paragraph per page. Big thumbs down.
The new beta site.. yuk! There isn't enough time in my life to view your articles one at a time. And I have a fast internet connection. On a smartphone forget about it. The search engine went from terrible to horrendous, and I was just getting started on figure it out.
