Iwould like to start a thread about interesting experiences in restaurants.
Ihave already told about my Mongolian experience elswhere.
I like to eat out a lot and try diffent places.-even when Igo shopping Imust stop somewhere even for a coffee.
I remember going to the Royal Court some years ago on my daughter's 18th.
She asked for a vegetarian meal which was not so common as now. We all had almost eaten our 'meat' meal when hers came. An omelette filled with tinned mixed veg-straight from the tin .== disgusting. I complained and they offered to warm it up! Whilst all this was happening , right behind me was a trolley where some steak was being 'incinerated' and all the smoke and fumes were wafting through my hair .
We left and as our coats were being collected the manager came and asked if we had enjoyed the meal.
I told him!!. He offered us another meal- another day-for which I thanked him but never took up the offer, as my daughter went off to university and time passed.
ANOTHER TIME I WENT INTO A CAFE IN COVENTRY --NOT TO BE NAMED- AND WATCHED A YOUNG GIRL NOT ONLY COMBING HER LONG HAIR---BUT DIPPING HER COMB INTO THE TEA URN.
COME ON LETS HEAR SOME MORE TALES THERE MUST BE SOME.
