Vanity Fair 。has thrown down the gauntlet with a scathing restaurant review of Trump Tower's Trump Grill and, in the process, sparked up a decades-old feud between the magazine's editor and the president-elect. 。
SEE ALSO:Donald Trump will wield the biggest media operation in the history of the U.S. presidency 。It all started on Wednesday when the magazine published Tina Nguyen's review putting Trump Grill on blast for terrible ambience and even worse food, like the Gold Label Burger which she described like so: 。
... a Pat LaFrieda–branded short-rib burger blend molded into a sad little meat thing, sitting in the center of a massive, rapidly staling brioche bun, hiding its shame under a slice of melted orange cheese.。
The word "flaccid" and "inconsistent" were also used to describe the menu and food --and that seems kind compared to other aspects of the review, like when she says of the bathrooms, they "transport diners to the experience of desperately searching for toilet paper at a Venezuelan grocery store." 。

And, yes, she even went after Trump's beloved taco bowls in perhaps the most brutal part of the review. 。
The fried shell, meant for one, contained a party-sized amount of lettuce and ground beef suspended in sour cream and “Dago’s famous guacamole”, which NASA might have served in a tube labeled “TACO FILLING” in the early days of the space program. Sadly, the taco bowl, perfectly adequate as it was, is not good enough to prevent Trump from deporting millions of Hispanics. 。Harsh 。

It didn't take long for the new chapter in the feud to pick up steam with Trump followers, even if it wasn't immediately clear to them why. 。 Tweet may have been deleted。 A feud reignited 。So about that feud. Carter has been a particularly prickly nemesis for Trump dating back to Carter's tenure at。
Spy Magazine, the famous satirical magazine of the 1980s and 1990s that made an Olympic sport out of hurling insults at the real estate magnate, including the memorable "short-fingered vulgarian. 。" 。

For his part, Carter hasn't held back and has continued to throw literary punches at his old nemesis, such as this November column in which he refers to Trump as "The Ugly American" and a more recent piece in which he bemoaned, "Only in America could a man who brags about groping and kissing women without their consent win 53 percent of the vote among white women." 。
What his response to this latest attack will be is unknown, but Carter's got that。
