Restaurants and the WWW

[Tyrrell]

Last night I went to a restaurant in St. Paul (Red Fish Blue if you're a local) and I had a glass of vina reboreda that I wanted to know more about (where it comes from, what grapes are in it etc.). So I thought that I'd pop over to the restaurant's web page and get the name of the bottle off of the wine list posted there. The restaurant had no web page! (That I found) I tried to look up a few other local restaurants to see if this was an aberration. Turns out that it wasn't. So either I'm using the wrong search engine or this sort of technological retardation is not uncommon for eating establishments. I haven't seen any links in restaurant reviews either this morning.

Is there an explanation that anyone here can provide me with? (Or even wild speculation if it’s sufficiently entertaining.)
