The Cott & Co. Fish Bar

My partner and I were assigned to review an article called

Cott & Co, at the Cottesloe Hotel, is easy like Sunday morning



and were to answer the following questions.

It is a review about a restaurant in Cottesole, Australia. 




Does the reviewer show any special "insider" knowledge of the chefs or the restaurant's plans for the future?

The reviewer does not state any special knowledge about the chefs or the restaurant's future. However, it writes about the stylish and fine designed interiors and atmospheres. The restaurant is located near beach and is a dinning bar with mainly seafood dishes served. 


What is the writing style of the review?

The writing style of this review is very casual but to the point. It uses more like a conversational language than formal language.

From the type of restaurant being review and from the style of writing, what would you guess about the readers of this newspaper?

This review is mainly for  tourists since this fish bar is located inside a hotel and maybe for local people living in Cottesole.

Does the review include a convenient grid so that the reader can see, at a glance such facts as the restaurants location, the price range of menus, and etc?

The reviewer does provide basic facts about this restaurant; the location, price range, hours, and phone number. But when I first read this article, I did not know where the restaurant was located. I thought it was better and easy to understand if the reviewer posted a map of the restaurant. 

What additional information can you find about the restaurant?

The review is more in detail and has additional information than the official website. 

Based on the review, would you and your partner like to try this restaurant?

Yes, we would like to go here. I have never been to Australia so this would be the one place to visit in the future.

  1. Your analysis of the restaurant review is informative and easy to read thanks to the way you distinguished the questions from your responses to them using bold type face. I suppose that the writing style of the review may have been casual to match the atmosphere of the restaurant, which does not seem formal at all.
