Dining Experiences You've Encountered

It seems when I dine out, I have not had the best of luck, even on dates. So, it isn't just me! :) If there is a hair in the restaurant astray it will find it's way onto my plate at some point. I don't care how fine of an establishment it is. I remember my fiance at the time took me to a really upscale restaurant in D.C., when I got my meal there was a long blond hair on my filet mignon. The waitress took it back but never gave me warm side dishes. I didn't even eat it.

Another incident I was having a salad bar and I went to serve myself and there were actual fruit flies on the salad. I went back to my table and when the waitress came over I told her I would not be dining there because there were fruit flies all over the salad and she said: "They are JUST fruit flies!!". I walked out.

I can make you almost feel not so bad. Try finding that hair at the bottom of your taco salad, and you ate it.

I inevitably tend to find any bone chip or hard gristle present in any batch of hamburger. I've broken two crowns this way-- while munching merrily away at hamburger sandwiches. It happens to me more often than not. Once, I got what appeared to be a piece of a stainless steel kitchen rack in my pizza, at Pizza Hut. I have also gotten the fruit flies in a salad, or in a drink at the bar, but those don't bother me. I just pick them out if they are dead; if they're still swimming, down the hatch (muahahahaha!)! All those extras I've eaten by accident on camping trips haven't killed me yet. :p Sometimes, I'll grab one out of the air and eat it, just to freak people out. Chances are, my "Chuck Norris-tough" personal cooties and resident tapeworm will kill any other parasite which trespasses. :rofl:

I have a friend who always gets the hair in his food (sometimes a head hair, sometimes a pube). He's obsessed with scoping out the hair-colors of the cook and visible staff before he eats, so he knows whom to blame it on-- his odd hair-finding affinity has made him somewhat obsessive-compulsive. We make quite a pair when we go out to eat, as we never know what cool extras we'll get with dinner. I wonder why some people are prone to finding certain things in their food?

I had a waitress spill an entire tray of full water glasses in my lap at the Rochester Chop House a few years back. I was out on a blind date, and it was horrible! I actually felt sorry for the girl, because it was her first night alone on the floor. I was a bit pissed about being wet in my nice clothes, but my heart went out to her, as I've made a living as a clumsy waitress before.

My father once found the butt of someone's cigar in his chop suey.

In the bite he had taken. :sick:

I also had an experience at a Red Robin where my friend and I had 2 iced teas spilled on us (the ENTIRE teas. Not just splashed), the waiter then never put in our orders, and when the manager came to replace them, he had to come back 20 mins later to explain that we'd be waiting more, cause he had only just put our food order in. There were four of us there, and our meals, plus dessert, were free.

I went to a Taco Bell on Telegraph in Detroit about 15 years ago but I will never forget the experience. The staff was actually heckling the customers and the main instigator was the Manager. You had to see it to believe it. A customer told the employee taking his order what he wanted and the person would say back to the customer: "NO, you don't want that, order something else!". My friend and I were just looking at each other in disbelief. The customer asked for the manager, and HE was the manager, that was the topper for us. A huge argument ensued where the customer was run out of the restaurant by the staff. We just left. It was all because the employees didn't want to do any work.

More than likely it was teens and ppl in their early 20's,running the place.

The one on Dixie in Waterford isn't any better..I've been told they were "out" of chalupa shells just because they didn't feel like frying any-- on more than one occasion. Lazy ass fucks. I certainly hope you sent some mail or a shitty phonecall to headquarters, and complained. I know I did. :biggrin:
