Unlike objective criteria, like upgrades and food and beverage credits, which are quantifiable; it is far more difficult to convey the merits of the soft product. Those of you who appreciate the latter and are able to provide the reader with an accurate impression of their experience are rarer than those who focus on the former. Although I am more likely to be sitting in the stands during an ACC or NCAA basketball tournament than enjoying a meal at the King Cole Bar, even if one is able to root against Duke, your review makes a compelling case for an anniversary dinner there.
