I was really looking forward to a lovely meal last night- 3 course meal the works! Been good all week in preparation for this! So OH takes me out to a greek resturant. Greek because its sentimental to us as i love the country and one day we plan to live there for a while. So we turn up to the resturant 9pm as booked. We were aware we had to take our own wine etc as they don't have a license to sell alcohol- not a problem as we dont drink when eating anyway. However, it was as if we had done something wrong all night- waiters just wudnt accept the fact we were OK with diet coke and lemo and were convinced we 'didn't know to take our own drink'- just not the case!
Anyway, before we walked in we looked at the menu- which looked goregous!! I had an idea in mind what i fancied and so did OH. We sat down only to be handed this laminated piece of paper which was the SET menu for valentines day at £25 PER HEAD!!!!!!! We chose our starters- lovely! Main course was absolutely revolting! I had chicken athena- just looked like sick on a plate with lumps of fat for chicken! GROSS! :sigh: I left mine didnt eat much of it. Then desert- only two choices. Carrot cake or Choc fudge cake- went for the choc fudge and it was the best part of the meal. All of the way through this i pretended to OH i was enjoying it etc as it wasnt his fault and he paid a fortune for it! But my oh my i just thought aboutSW chips with egg whilslt eating it - IT WAS THAT BAD!
Went for drinks afterwards. We had fun whch made up for the disaster. But i am so angry about the whole service we had at this rubbish resturant. They didnt even serve veg with the mains! Everything was fried! URGH!
Sorry for ranting but im so annoyed that i used my syns up on something as revolting as that last night! :break_diet:
Hope everyone else enjoyed vals night lol x
