Undercover Assignment




Well, so much for getting my textbook. That's right it didn't happen. But I did spend the evening with a very dear person so all is good. Since my instructor________ has been scanning the pages in the relevant books I can still read the sections requested.

The font is just a little small, and rather light coloured when printed off.
However with a magnifying glass and a suitable light I'll be fine.
Lots of squinting, ............ lots.
Bifocals may need to upgraded to a telescope.

I have read the requirements for my first assignment. I need to go, and eat at, and then review, a new restaurant. After this I will present my findings to the class, based on what I have learned in the course so far. Since I rather like verbal presentations and I am a capable writer this shouldn't be too difficult. I have even picked out the restaurant. I am reading and researching the relevant people who work there now, including the owner. I am also studying their website which is extensive.
   I just can't figure out how to eat there and not look like I am reviewing the place. I am not a known food critic so I won't be recognized. But I will need to make copious notes because I simply won't remember the details for later. Heck, I can barely remember my postal code!

How do I take copious notes, which I am going to need to do, without being noticed?

  1. go with a friend, and record your conversation (discreetly) Make a point of telling your friend what you think about the dish. That won't be too obvious!
