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.

I wish I had that.Had been with a new girlfriend for a few months (she's my wife now, but I digress) and we went over to her best friends house, and was promised slap up meal, woo hoo! I think, and basically starve myself all day.
So we get to her friends house and her boyfriend has cooked but refuses to tell us what it is, so we have the starter and a few drinks, then he brings out this whole squid, stuffed with rice, one for each of us, it's got the tentacles and the beak and everything still on it. Now I'll eat fish, but any other seafood is out, *barf*
So, as not to upset anyone I eat it, with PLENTY of wine to wash it down, come 10:30 I'm smashed and me an another guy who were invited are having beak eating competitions!
In the cab on the way home she turns to me and says "I didn't think you liked seafood" I replied in a very sorry voice "I f**king hate squid!"
I made the cabbie stop for a bucket of chicken on the way home, just to get rid of the taste...
As an after note, my wife then girlfriend was veggie, she had stuffed peppers, it is the only time in my life I have looked at a vegetarian meal and thought "I wish I had that"
