Check,

check.

Hi, if my voice sounds different, it's because I'm recording on my cell phone right now.

I don't have my recording gear with me, so I'm back to go out to a restaurant and you

know if you walk into a restaurant with a bunch of microphones, it's kind of conspicuous.

I am on a secret mission.

Where am I? At an undisclosed location in New York City. Well,

it's disclosed to me, but I can't tell you. Where am I going to eat? Again,

sorry, top secret. But I can't tell you who I'm going to eat with.

New York Times Restaurant Critic Pete Wells, he has been called the most red and most feared food writer in America.

He can make or break a restaurant with the power of one of his reviews.

And he doesn't want restaurants to know he's coming because he doesn't want special treatment,

so he makes reservations under fake names.

Even once he's inside he tries not to be recognized.

That's why there's only like one picture of him online and I think it's from a long time ago.

So I'm out here on a street corner trying to find this guy and I'm not even exactly sure what he looks like.

Where is Pete? Oh, I think that might be him coming down the street.

Yes, I waved and he waved back.

Pete, it's you.

Yes, how do you know?

Well, you don't look so different from that one picture out there.

Don't I look older and rounder?
