A Denver restaurant manager alleges former Denver Westword food critic Jason Sheehan tried to bribe his staff for a table. Fruition's Paul Attardi tells Eater Denver that Sheehan once offered a server $50 to skip the reservation line: "The first month we opened up, one of the waiters was offered a bribe by Jason Sheehan, who was writing for Westword. The waiter was having a cigarette, and he didn't realize it was Jason Sheehan, but he was offered $50 for a table." Sheehan, who went on to work for the Seattle Weekly, didn't get the table. [-EDEN-]
