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.

"Have you ever been to Harvester before?""Like I would make the same mistake twice?"
I have been to the horribly Australian themed TGI Friday's clone, called Outback or soemthing similar. The food was fine for what it was, but the theme-ing was relentless . The poor bloody staff were obviously forced to try and get you to order all sorts of stuff with stupid names rather than just say "Steak please".
It was really odd and felt very much like an British restaurant trying to seem like an American themed place with an Australian flavour. Why ffs? I'm told that Australian cuisine is really exciting, what with all the greek and asian influences so why make a glorified harvester into a mock ozzie bar.
Steak was nice but the kangaroo fries, or whatever 'fun' name they had, looked suspiciously like chips to me...
