Hello students, in this question we've been given various situations and we have to decide the fallacy that has been represented in those statements.

So the first one is an example of false dilemma because it only presents two options as the best restaurant in new york city, ignoring the possibilities of other great restaurants.
00:30
Second one is an example of bandwagon fallacy because it assumes that because many people are going to buddy bistros, it might be a great place.

There's no evidence to support their claim.

Third example is a logical fallacy is post hoc ergo proctor hoc.

It assumes that an event x is followed by another event y.
01:17
That means x must have influenced y.
01:20
For example, in the given question or given statement, it is said that lunar eclipse caused the buddy's bistro to be successful because it opened on a lunar eclipse.
01:36
So this is an example of post hoc ergo proctor hoc.
01:41
Fourth one is an example of appeal to tradition.
01:45
It assumes that the buddy's brown buttered buffalo bisque should be kept on the menu simply because it has been there since the beginning.
