Enough of all this lovely meal stuff
Where did you have your WORST restaurant experience?
Mine is easy. Before the girls were born (when we had a life
) we went on holiday to Mexico. One week in Cancun, one week on the beach in the back end of nowhere, amazing hotel with beach to front, dense jungle to back.
We arrived at hotel no2 for week 2 and as the only people doing things this there was no tour rep, just stuck in a people carrier and dumped at the reception. So we had to really find our own way around. We found the main restaurant and had lunch. On the menu, they had something like "Exotic Ice Cream", so I'm all for exotic and went for that as a dessert.
When it came, it was 3 scoops of ice cream, pineapple, coconut and a rather plain vanilla looking one. Pineapple and coconut very nice. Might as well polish off the third one. I took a spoonful and it was ok, but I remember telling Mrs Scunner that it must be chocolate chip ice cream because there were little brown flecks exposed when I took the first spoonful.
Imagine my surprise when a further delve into the ice cream revealed a frozen to death cockroach, legs upwards [

God bless Cosmos, I ripped into the rep on the phone and was stopped in my tracks when he said get packed, we'll have a taxi out the front in 30 minutes. True to their word, it arrived as promised and whisked us off to a hotel so posh that we could never have afforded it
Then paying us half our money back, that was also nice
