    Writer of viral Olive Garden review grateful for Bourdain

    Yahoo Entertainment•June 11, 2018

    A North Dakota newspaper columnist who received online vitriol in 2012 for her glowing review of an Olive Garden in Grand Forks said Saturday she was grateful that Anthony Bourdain came to her defense as others ridiculed her prose about the town's hottest new Italian restaurant. Marilyn Hagerty catapulted to internet fame after her Olive Garden review, in which she marveled about the chain restaurant's chicken Alfredo, crisp greens, and "two long, warm breadsticks." Then, she learned what it's like to go viral.
