The "Roadfood Insider"

1.	How should I notify you of a great restaurant you should try? You can do two things - First, you can post your findings on the Roadfood Forums. The other option is to click on the "Submit Content" link on the bottom of the page (it will prompt you to login) and complete the restaurant information, write a review and be sure to post pictures of the food.
2.	How can I write a review of a restaurant? You click on the link "Submit Content" on the footer of the page and that will take you to a screen where you can select a restaurant to write a review. If that restaurant does not exist you can create a new one.
3.	What are the requirements for getting a review posted? All reviews must be well written and clearly give descriptions about the taste and presentation of the food. Look at other reviews on the site as examples. Once a review is submitted, it needs to be reviewed by our editors to make sure it is appropriate. All reviews for a new restaurant must have an approved photo of the food to be published on the site.

Registering

1.	Is registering free? Yes!
2.	Do you share my e-mail with anyone else? No! Your e-mail stays with Roadfood We don't like it when companies share our e-mails so we don't do the same.
3.	Where can I activate my registration? Go to this web page.
4.	I forgot my password - how can I retrieve it? You can retrieve your password from http://www.roadfood.com/Login/SendPassword.aspx
5.	I tried to register but it says an e-mail was already taken. That means you are probably already registered. If you forgot your password it can be retrieved through e-mail.
6.	How can I subscribe or unsubscribe to monthly mailings? You can change your subscription settings by logging in and then clicking on the "Preferences" link in the main menu. From there you can check or un-check the checkbox that has emailing options. The direct link is http://www.roadfood.com/MyRoadfood/Preferences.aspx

Merchandise

1.	How do you choose which merchandise to sell? These products are selected by the co-owners of the site - Stephen Rushmore, Jane & Michael Stern. We feature the latest books authored by Jane & Michael Stern, and our other favorites of our library/computer.
2.	Why should I click on your links to Amazon.com? We get a tiny commission from Amazon.com for every purchased linked to our site. These funds pay for a fraction of the server and Internet provider expenses.
