That was supposed to be a Google/Yahoo search clue. A A Gill is a food
critic for the British newspaper The Times. The line is from one of his
restaraunt reviews:

ting_out/a_a_gill/article5748392.ece
An expanded extract of that line is:
I wanted to grab Fakhreldine€s manager and say, why are you doing this?
The meatballs in piping microwaved yoghurt were an accident in a
sheep-insemination laboratory. You plainly don€t like running a
restaurant; you take no pride in your product; you find the customers
irksome and annoying; you palm off unpleasant food to people you
despise; and there€s barely anyone here. Why on earth don€t you do
something else?
