“At the end of July 2019, I tried reaching out to Mr. Vedat Milor via DM on Twitter and Instagram. When that didn’t work, he kindly responded to a comment I publicly left on one of his posts and asked me to forward my unseen message to his email address. I had hoped for a brief response, at least, and since I haven’t heard back, I assume he never saw it. So, after holding onto this personal project for over a year, I’ve decided to finally share it with the public 🙂
@vmilor is doing a remarkable job in a very challenging field. Like most, I view him as a true authority in his domain. His articles, social media posts, and unique tone only reinforce his expertise in my eyes. The @vedatmilorlezzetrehberi project is a treasure trove. Last year, while using the guide’s website, I often thought, ‘While keeping the standard 5-star rating for user reviews, wouldn’t it be great if there was a unique rating system reflecting Vedat Milor’s expertise—a system that was his signature?’ Something akin to the Michelin star, but of course, carrying different meanings and values—a Vedat Milor star / recommendation / evaluation system.
I couldn’t resist—I sketched some ideas. I couldn’t stop myself from refining one of them. I couldn’t help but try to share it with Mr. #vedatmilor and the #vedatmilorlezzetrehberi team. And now, I can’t resist launching it into the depths of the universe, just to get it off my chest :)”
