VIDEO : Critic Whose Olive Garden Review Went Viral Remembers Anthony Bourdain Spoke Up For Her

In 2012, then-88-year-old Marilyn Hagerty of Grand Forks, North Dakota, wrote arguably the most viral restaurant review ever written. It was for Olive Garden. Hagerty, who was a food columnist for local Grand Forks Herald, dubbed it "the largest and most beautiful restaurant now operating in Grand Forks." "The chicken Alfredo ($10.95) was warm and comforting on a cold day. The portion was generous. My server was ready with Parmesan cheese," she wrote. It was an instant viral sensation, with tons of people cracking sarcastic jokes about the octogenarian's earnest review.
