Crap meals outI'd chosen to take my in-laws to one of my favourite restaurants, only to discover it had changed hands the week before. We waited half an hour to get menus. The waitress broke the cork in the wine we ordered. She got our order wrong. The food was luke-warm, mine was overcooked, the rest was undercooked. After waiting another 40 minutes for the last course, we were told that we couldn't have any as the chef had "forgotten to de-frost the puddings".
Let's just say they didn't get a tip. Tell us of your crap meals out.

St Andrews againdrunkenoaf - I know someone who worked behind the bar in the Oak Rooms, he said he wouldn't eat there either.
But if you're in St Andrews, never, ever go to Little Johns. The waiters are all bored students working at minimum wage and the food is at best something you could have done for half the price at home. At worst, I once ordered a chicken burger (was feeling adventurous) which was essentially bits of mashed up chicken that had been shaped into a meat patty, and was held together with cornflour. Complained to the waiter, whose response was 'Oh, do you want another one?' before he came back and said 'Actually, all of them are like that.' Any normal person would've complained to get their money back. Alas I am an idiot, and my mouth tasted of sticky flour all night.
If you are in St Andrews, try the Vine Leaf. Or if you're wasted, the KFB will deepfry ANYTHING (including goldfish if some of the less scrupulous staff are on).
