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.

a reply to micky2shoes and a story.
thanks for your advice but if you read closely my girlfriend was FRENCH so what language do you think she ordered in/spoke? I'll give you a clue, it's not the medium of dance! I speak passable French as well as German, Spanish and a little Italian so why is it when I visit any country other than France I get good service even if I don't speak a word of the local language? If you can't draw your own conclusions I'll get you some crayons.
now then off that subject and back on the proper one. as I have previously mentioned I spent a bit of time in HM forces. one time I was involved in a massive exercise on Otterburn, North Yorkshire, which is about as inviting as the moors at begining of An American Werewolf in London and it was early December. I was used to cooking for myself but we were informed No, there's central feeding, field kitchens. Bloody great, army cooking is not the best but at least its warm grub, lots of it and plenty bread and butter and tea. As my platoon arrived at the field kitchen there is a near riot going on; picture 100 cold wet and hungry squaddies all looking forward to hot grub only to be served...... SALAD!
Salad,
in December,
on Otterburn,
it was minus 4!!
what was the chefs response, to heat up the cole slaw so it became "hot slaw" FACKIN TWUNT!!!!!
