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.

Eat my spit, you mother!Not really a meal as such- I went to Sainsburies in Camden to buy a seafood salad (sea insects and stuff). When I got back to my desk I took a mouthful and found it to be completely frozen.
Being mindful of possible food poisoning, I gobbed it straight back out into the plastic packaging and stormed off back to Sainsburies.
It was a full 10 minutes away, allowing me to build up a good amount of righteous indignation....
"look here, I want to see the manager".
After 10 minutes of ranting at him about the near-death experience I had just had with his prawn lollies, he claimed that it was not possible for them to be frozen - they don't freeze their seafood.
I said "try it- see for yourself"
He did, and I winced internally as I saw him try the mouthful I had just spat out.
SO, I got my money back, a free sandwich, and the absolute joy of seeing a jobsworth McManager eating my flob.
Apologies for girth my dear - you will grow to love it
