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.

This isn't creally a 'crap' meal - more an 'amusing' one.I'm not a vegetarian, but sometimes I just don't feel like eating meat. One day we were at a restaurant in Llandudno. Been there before - reasonably acceptable and nice and average enough. However, this was one of the days I was in a 'veggie' mood, so I had a look at the menu, and as I'm sure any herbivores won't be surprised, was strugling to find any veggie options other than 'salad'.
So I called the waitress over to ask her what vegetarian stuff there was on the menu. She looked confused, walked away to ask someone, came back and pointed at Chicken Kiev on the menu. I looked at her and laughed because I thought she was joking. She looked confused. I said "Chicken? Erm, I was asking for vegetarian meals!". She looked confused again, walked off to ask someone, then came back and told me that there was a vegetable kiev.
Anyway, the meal was nice enough, she looked embarassed even though I told her it was ok, and, erm, that's about it. Sorry, that's about as interesting as it gets.
