Crap meals out
I'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.

Perfect Fried Chicken (spine!)
I'm a student in the East End (oh, it's wonderful!), and the most abundant fast-food places are KFC variants. (These)
One near me seemed tasty enough after a few pints, so I buy some chicken and chips, to partake of in my room.
Eating one of the fairly boneless bits like a mule eatin' an apple, (I think it was a side, it seemed so) I crunched something that didn't seem right, and paused for a moment, gobbing it back out onto the plate - and lo - what I thought was a single bone was in fact it's spine, little vertebrae bits with the cord going through the middle, surrounded by chewed chicken.
Normally I'm not that squeamish, but my stomach didn't agree - and subsequently spewed in my sink.
Not exactly a restaraunt meal out like the other b3tans have posted, but it looked like chicken before I discovered it's back.
I don't frequent that establishment no mores.
Sorry for length, it's my first post (woo!) after reading the boards for a few months. :)
