Kickstarter’s head of community talks about her experience as an outlier on Yelp—what happens when a passionate new user is filtered out by ranking algorithms.
ensignau:
Last weekend, after being inspired by a gorgeous, delicious meal I had at a new local restaurant called Bistro Petit, I decided to write a review on Yelp.

Recipe: Gorgonzola Walnut Crostini with Pear Salad →
Verdict: tasty. Don’t be disappointed if your Gorgonzola won’t melt. Serve with soup! Preferably butternut squash soup. Add some baby spinach, crushed red pepper, some of the excess caramelized onions, and a dollop of Greek yogurt (or creme fraiche if you’re fancy).
Warning! The crostini gets REALLY crunchy depending on what kind of bread you use (I used ww sourdough).

Lost Weekend NYC →
Bro friends, might I recommend Lost Weekend NYC? Blue Bottle coffee, men’s clothing, Malin + Goetz products. On the LES (and tumblr). The current Patrick McMullan photography exhbit of SoHo in the 80s will probably appeal to everyone.
