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.

Quite a fewI've had quite a few dodgy meals.
* A run down pub in my hometown seemed ok but it took f*ucking hours to get our food, despite the table of about 8 of us being the only ones there. Cue jokes about it being quicker to go over to Sainsburys across the road, buying something frozen and microwaving it ourselves. With perfect comic timing a microwave pinged in the distance and the food was served a few seconds later.
* A Brewsters (asking for trouble). They had run out of everything (including potatoes!) so the beef dinner I had asked for was served with chips! (Granted they had given my daft boyfriend the choice of chips or baked potato)
The waiter hung around angling for a tip which he did not get on being a slimy little oik.
*Valentine's Day this year in a Chinese restaurant which is normally amazing. They do an all you can eat menu which is quite reasonable, but on Valentine's Day they did a smaller set menu which was vastly overpriced. We had horrible undercooked, over floured pancakes with the duck and the only extra that I could see was the scabby rose I received.
Bastards!
