VIRAL: 86 Year Old Restaurant Columnist With Dead Serious Review of New Olive Garden

An adorable 86 year old woman was not trying to be funny when she wrote a review of the new Olive Garden in Grand Forks, North Dakota, but her sweet, serious analysis of the experience, ("My server was ready with Parmesan cheese.") and rave review - has gone viral.
