Maybe the staff havent woken up yet? When i went there i couldnt fault the service or the food. I might stick to the food store after reading this and leave dinner to infusion. Although surely they know the direct competition to them is the food store?T.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-4498905765283590002009-05-25T22:59:12.056+10:002009-05-25T22:59:12.056+10:00Thanks for enlightening me on that salient fact Si...Thanks for enlightening me on that salient fact Sir G! I was wondering if you'd 'turned'!<br />Mehitabel - I'm not into violence so that wouldn't happen!<br />TJ - interesting that we should have such opposite experiences there on the same day, and frustrating for that to happen to you. Interesting too that you were only one of 3 tables there for Sat lunch.<br />I asked owner when he was starting the takeaways and he said end of June, but if it were my business and it were so quiet I'd be getting them going yesterday. Surely better to do takeaway sales than have empty restaurant, possibly throw food out, and utilise rostered staff. In these times of most people watching their outgoings, they're going to choose takeaways every time over a sit-down, more expensive restaurant meal.<br />Wayne, thanks, but it actually was the owner serving (or not)!<br />Anon - it appears yet again the lack of customer service issue rears its ugly head again. Damn! But don't stop trying new places. That's what makes the excitement greater when you actually find somewhere that has all the boxes ticked for you.Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05721723151185687327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-26127959849190243562009-05-25T19:38:15.541+10:002009-05-25T19:38:15.541+10:00PS Rita...Burger King was at the request of a cert...PS Rita...Burger King was at the request of a certain grandchild, so I had to wear it.<br />We had all just been to the movies.

I nearly got up to say something but the missus didn't want a fuss.<br />Then at teatime a long wait at Burger King in the city, locked in a car queue. It's supposed to be fast food.

And they were worth it!<br /><br />That said, the red beef curry and the duck salad which we had for mains, were just okay (nothing to write about so I won't!).<br /><br />TJ<br /><br />PS we were one of three tables at 1pm on a Saturday for lunch.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-48557934882139234232009-05-25T07:08:16.977+10:002009-05-25T07:08:16.977+10:00Sorry to hear that Rita.
