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.

For those of you who know South Yorkshire pretty wellThere is a restaurant known as Damon's, near Beighton. Overpriced cack. But this is not the subject of my story.
I was 10 years old, and I was in Egypt for my Dad's wedding. I was best man no less! Anyways, we decided to eat out one evening. The "restaurant" will forever be burned into my memory, as at first I thought it was a zoo and a restaurant. Ah, childish naivety. They were keeping the animals "fresh" as it were. It didn't quite enter my mind that the pretty doves were being taken out of their cages to be killed right then and there for the meals. Until I was told, and then happily tucked into my food anyways. Thing was, they even had a bloody huge python in one of the cages... I ordered dove, by the way. Little feathered bastard gave me the trots too.
