Screw Padma. Radhika has now won me over with 2 sentences…

Last week, I went to her restaurant, Between- Boutique Cafe & Lounge in Wicker Park. Overall, an underwhelming experience. Radhika was there and talked to us for a bit, about the show and our meal. For those who care, she was a little slow with the humor and lacked charisma. Anyway, I Yelped about our experience, which would be the natural end to the story. But then…
I get this response from her 10 hours later via Yelp:

Hey there Anisha A.

Sorry your experience with us was so unfortunate. Hope you find what you think are better places to dine in the city.

Sincerely,
Chef Radhika

Basically, I equated her place to an upscale swingers club (actually a compliment), criticized her specialty chutneys and crucified the service. And how does she respond? Polite, sincere and non-defensive. In the very process of not trying to win me over, she did exactly that.
