    I recall one of those American burger chains running a "design and name your own burger and win a prize!" competitions.

    Mine was a single lettuce leaf called "The Karen Carpenter" and was in 4th place and climbing when they pulled the competition. :(

    That is quite possibly the most brilliant thing I've read in a long time.

    *Tips hat*

    You'd think she'd buy just one more plate..

    She had 8 children! Do you think plates grow on trees?

    so you got one of those " 2 shizzle meals for the price of one"vouchers...
    you will find that most chefs in kitchens will look on these voucher meals as a pain in the arse and not worthy of their time
    so they will basically **** it on a plate with a bit of garnish and they dont generally give 2 ****s about the voucher customer.
    Been my experience and some friends too.

    I've been there before!
    They gave one of my friends a hat that said "Ask me about my rash", he had told us earlier that he had a terrible crotch rash at the time from the heat. Lovely coincidence.

    Ok Hootanany - you're a long time Boardsie so you know how this works. We need details please. Whilst we know you can't name the place you have to give us more info - you can't just leave us hanging. By the way, on Friday night I had what was one of the best meals I've had in a long time - O'Callaghan Walshes in Rosscarbery. Fab

    God, talk about making a meal of it... did the chef serve you a live fish and you ate into it not realizing? What happened?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,737 ✭✭✭✭kylith


    Worst meal I've ever had was Christmas day with my ex's parents. I had previously mentioned to the ex that his mother's habit of boiling all veg for about an hour wasn't really to my taste and he had passed this information along for some reason, which resulted in me being served a whole raw carrot with dinner (which was definitely the preferable option). She also burned the feck out of the mash and they looked and tasted like someone had emptied an ashtray into the pot. Couple that with the traditional dry turkey and lumpy gravy and it was a meal not even fit for a dog.

    Absolute rubbish! Do you think they want to ruin their reputation because someone got a discounted meal? The reason places sign up to these vouchers is to get new custom, not to try poison people.

    The chef doesn't know or care who he/she's cooking for.

    There's one place in Limerick that I buy vouchers for every time they come up and each time we've been given a new voucher when we've finished our meal.

    It was a Steak or Ribs deal 2 glasses of wine €22 lids picture on deal site made it out to be one of the trendy wendy places.
    In fact in was a shoite hole of a place 98fm over the tannoy and it wasn't even tuned in properly.
    Feet was sticking to the tiles always a bad sign frozen chips bottled BBQ sauce steak was grizzle.
    We didn't complain in case they offered us another meal.

    Truly Truly dreadful place just of O"Donnell St

    Imagine if you was on death row and this was the thread you started on boards.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,635 ✭✭✭Pumpkinseeds


    I've worked in catering and if there was something wrong with my food I'd insist on a refund, not another meal, I've seen what can be 'added' to the replacement meal and it isn't appetising.
