QotD: Never Going Back Again
What's been your worst experience at a restaurant?
I won't say the experience was awful enough to avoid the place, but I had a particularly bizarre dinner with nancy drew at a neighborhood restaurant. A few months ago, we spent a Sunday together, shopping and running errands. By that evening, we were starved and decided to go out to dinner. The food at this place was fine, and we had no complaints, but our highly entertaining waitress seemed to have been flown in from out of this world. nancy likened her to Cheri Oteri's SNL character Colette Reardon, woman of a million prescriptions. Most of our requests for extra condiments whirled around her as she passed our table, few of them landing or even coming close to being addressed. She'd whiz past our table, seemingly on wheels, tossing a cackle our way before turning to vapor. It was like dining in Wonderland.

Mine was at Penang, but not due to a problem with the restaurant. The restaurant's great. But my dinner companion embarrassed me to no end. I was impressed by her level of bluntness and tactlessness. She put my pathetic attempts at bluntness and tactlessness to shame.
