Somewhere on the road out of central Manchester, my friend Thom pipes up from the back of the cab. “I think we’re going the wrong way.” I can see the driver’s app. “He’s just following the route,” I tell him. Then, says Thom, we’re going to the wrong place. I ask the driver to pull over. This is a new one on me. I am generally all over where I am going to review. I will have looked it up online, studied the menu, perhaps stalked it digitally via Google Streetview.
