As Founder and Editor-in-Chief of The Call Of<\/em>, Rex Freiberger drives the vision and editorial direction of the platform. He’s invented groundbreaking rating systems – his True Score<\/a> and Trust Rating<\/a> on Gadget Review<\/em> set new standards for product reviews, offering unmatched accuracy in determining quality. He also developed the most precise album rating system<\/a> for Music Minds<\/em>, and now he’s bringing this same analytical approach to The Call Of’s<\/em> restaurant reviews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Food runs deeper than just ratings for Rex. As a home chef and herbalist, he’s constantly pushing boundaries in his kitchen. His counters are lined with pickling jars and fermentation experiments, while his garden supplies fresh herbs for both innovative cocktails and bold new recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Friends gather regularly at his table, knowing they’re in for an evening of unique flavors and good company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This passion for food is in his blood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It all started with White Sail Cornmeal, their family mill in Gastonia, North Carolina, where quality ingredients meant everything. The legacy only grew stronger – his grandmother ran her own restaurant while his father, Dr. Harley Freiberger, managed to be both a full-time surgeon and an award-winning chef. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That pan-grilled spicy Thai chicken recipe of his? It won South Carolina’s competition in May 1993 and landed in the top 10 at the National Chicken Council.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today, his sister Mia Devillier-Freiberger carries on the tradition as well, running the celebrated La Petite Grocery<\/a> with her husband, award-winning chef Justin Devillier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just like his family before him, Rex puts that same dedication into every story he tells and every meal he shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
