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.

in Sydney where I used to liveThere was a very cheap Singaporean restaurant. My bad dining experience there wasn't the food, but a guy (not one of our group) yelling at the waiter for allegedly not serving him authentic Singaporean. Despite the fact that the customer was a white Aussie and the waiter was Asian.
And despite the fact that it was very cheap, and if it was different to what you get in Singapore presumably that would be because of the demands of the people who went there, rather than some nefarious scheme on the part of the owners.
It's just occured to me that it would have been most amusing for the waiter to say something like "I wish all you authentic Asians'd go back where you came from". Instead of nodding and smiling awkwardly.
