5. For the entree...
Edited on Sat Nov-26-11 08:57 AM by LuckyTheDog
... my son ordered trout and the waiter brought haddock.

For the desserts, we all ordered the bread pudding with vanilla ice cream. We all got bread pudding with whipped cream and no ice cream.

Each time, waiter acted like nothing was wrong. When we asked about the entree, he said "oh, well, we didn't have the trout." He figured fish was fish.

We complained to the manager, who replaced the awful haddock with turkey and comped that meal. But my son, who isn't all that much into turkey, really was looking forward to the trout.

When later we asked about the desserts (keep in mind that this was AFTER the trout/haddock fiasco and again, the waiter volunteered no information ahead of time) the waiter just said "oh, we were out of ice cream, so I replaced it with whipped cream). We were too flabbergasted to call the manager into it a second time. We ate the bread pudding as it was and got out of there.

My wife paid the bill and left a 7% tip. She's nicer than me. My tip would have been 0%.
