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.

France!France is the dog's, and not in a good way.
On a school trip around the turn of the century, we were all bundled to the Lille equivalent of Harvester and Wimpy rolled into one. Being veggie, I was handed a meal slip that said something on it, quite possibly 'légumes' or maybe 'végétarien'. I gave it to the big French serving lady, and got a steaming plate of fresh roast chicken. Oui, très bien!
