Lebanese Zomatians come in all tastes and flavors, but if you look close enough, then you\u2019ll find some may just have more extra sauce than others. <\/p>\n

After over a year of skimming through all kinds of reviews on the platform, we were able to identify eight dominant types of users that you are bound to come across sooner or later.<\/p>\n

Disclaimer: some people\u2019s Zomato persona is too complex to fit under a single description and can thus be classified as an amalgam of two or more categories. <\/i><\/p>\n

1. The Been-Everywhere Expert<\/b>

Otherwise known as top reviewers, users in this privileged category have clearly been around for much longer than you, achieving sheer popular status on the platform and earning every single expert badge you can imagine in the process. Their profile leaves you seriously wondering how in the living universe does a mortal human have the time, energy and most importantly appetite to visit all these places\/taste all these dishes\/write all these reviews in just one lifetime when you\u2019ve been struggling to pull yourself out of bed every morning for the past five years.<\/p>\n

2. The Obsessive Investigator <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Detail-oriented and outstandingly picky, foodies who fall under this Zomatype are always looking to advise chefs on how to cook better and enlighten restaurant owners on the \u2018right\u2019 way to do business. Although they do not necessarily give low ratings, they just cannot end a review without throwing in one or two \u2018improvement\u2019 tips that often turn out to be either too personal or too vague to be taken into consideration.<\/p>\n

3. The Epicurean Poet<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

These people enjoy authoring extensively eloquent restaurant reviews with a dash of Cambridge English and plenty of emotional involvement in the mix. Their choice of words stands somewhere between shattered dreams of a successful writing career and borderline poetry, which makes it hard for the average user to make sense of their actual opinion, often lost in translation in a manuscript of fancy sentences.<\/p>\n

4. The Grammar Prodigy <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

On the opposite end of the spectrum, we have reviewers who\u2019s burning passion for food is majorly overshadowed by miserable grammar, featuring everything from sentence structure tragedies to a heartbreaking bunch of invented spellings. They do gain points for creativity, though.<\/p>\n

5. The Two-Word Novelist<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

People here have the initial will to share their two cents on the restaurants they visit. But unfortunately, their two cents hardly make it past two random words on the go. A sample review of theirs would ideally go like \u201cGreat restaurant, loved the vibe\u201d or maybe \u201cLoved the food, service can be better, recommended\u201d and it just gives you the same random feeling as someone texting you \u201chi\u201d out of the blue without ever replying back.<\/p>\n

6. The Veggie Preacher <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Even if they\u2019re reviewing a cup of tea, Zomatians in this category will find a way to slip the word \u2018vegan\u2019 somewhere in between. It\u2019s like they just signed up for the platform to let the world in on their vegetarian lifestyle. Like yeah I went to X restaurant in Mar Mikhael and ordered chicken soup without chicken, a veggie burger, two gluten-free biscuits, organic kale juice and a whole bunch of other things that are meant to show you how healthy and desperate I am.<\/p>\n

7. The Clueless Newbie<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Review: Absolutely in love with this restaurant, the staff is amazing and their signature dessert is the best!
Rating: 1.0
*moment of silence*<\/p>\n

8. The Chronic Whiner<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nothing is ever going right anywhere on the map for these perpetually unimpressed fellas. They\u2019re like the World Champions of finding fault in every single recipe, waiter, valet parking, restaurant manager, table, toilet, light bulb and napkin out there. Just impressive!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
