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.

SteakI went to a steak place in London last time I was back in the UK, and the steak was lovely albeit 20 quid for each meal (without drinks). Now it's not the meat or the price that I'm objecting to, it was that they cocked up the drinks order. Twice.
20 quid meal, fine, but.. as an alcoholic I need a bloody beer or 3 to send it down... fortunately they weren't cheeky enough to try the old "service charge".
Oh! A friend of a friend (this is how all the good stories start) ate a shit sandwich once whilst drunk. Apparently he was always nicking stuff from this other guy's fridge so it was booby trapped with a couple of slices of hovis and a masterfully spread cleveland steamer.
And finally, another friend of mine cheated on his mrs while he was in Paris, with some 18 year old. He got the shits proper and only just made it home. Cue many, many references to "dodgy french sushi" in front of said mrs, and big STFU glares from him.
That's yer lot. Night!
