Several items of note:<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 There were 7 additional review sites referenced in Dallas (those in bold)
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 Judy’s Book which shut down last October (although the site is still live) seemed to have much more of a Buffalo presence
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2Zagat has a very strong presence in Dallas but little in Buffalo, I wonder why?
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2The Dallas Observer, an obviously local site, has a presence
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2CitySearch is the obvious leader in both cities<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
