I believe that recommendations are simply that: recommendations.  If you ask me where I would go to eat, I will tell you.  If you are not happy with my recommendations, tell me and we can discuss why you were not happy when I was.  That discussion may reveal that your standards are different than mine, and in the future, you can ask someone else or I can attempt to make recommendations that meet your standards.   Also, vice versa. Either way, there's no need to get upset.  As a good friend once said, "That's why they make chocolate AND vanilla."
