A Horrigible Meal For me

She is a "Speghetti lover" and I am not... so I ended up ordering a grilled spring chicken with some "supposedly" grilled potatoes... and my whole meal was sort of "horrigible."
The plate was big but the portion inside was very small..
Just enough for my girl and 
definitely not enough for any male eaters... 
Anyway, she loves it.. fine!
When mine came out, it looked like this...
a mini-sized half spring chicken..
This cost RM32.00...
Ok, never mind, if it tasted good.. 
But when I cut it deeper...
I had a tough time doing that...
True enough, it was not cooked!!
Waiter took it back...
"microwaved" it perhaps?
Anyway, it was the most Lousy meal I have ever eaten..
Tasteless and had a funny smell...
Was it the mustard?  Or had the meat turned bad?
The grilled potatoes were half cooked..
the corn was not fresh...
I thought of complaining... but thought better of it..
 I told my girl... "No more next time...."
A very unsatisfying meal !
I went home to munch some biscuits.....

happens to us once with our salmon order. inside was so raw that it is better to eat sashimi. they took it back and when we eat the salmon it is now so dry and tough... sigh..

Hi Reana, the food looks okay to me as I eat to live, not live to eat, ha ha.
But love the bar and all the drinks.
Wonder if they have Jack Daniels or Southern Comfort?
Have fun.......
When next you go eat banana leaf rice send me telegram.....
Best regards.

Oh! You should have complained! I definitely will complain if I am not happy with my meal! Besides, it's not cheap!

gigihawaii said...

That was too bad, Claire, especially at that price.

Ginny said...

Oh my gosh!!!! Raw chicken can make you very sick, most of them here have Salmonella. I would have not eaten ANY of it, even after fixing. What a horrible meal!!! How was your girl's meal?

suituapui said...

See! Not all that looks good are good! The chicken certainly looks very nice - 100% for presentation. Not cooked kah? Sometimes, these cafes do not defrost the meat properly, straight away grill...so inside still uncooked...and they're expensive some more.

suituapui said...

And RM32 for chicken IS expensive!!! Prime steaks go for around that price here.

suituapui said...

Sibu biscuits waiting......... Still so long! Sigh!!!

MeRy said...

For me, I sure complain about the uncooked food.

The Pepperrific Life said...

Nothing's worse than half-cooked chicken! What a horrible meal. Thank God for biscuits :)

Sheoh Yan said...

After spent RM32+, still had to go back munching biscuits. This was not nice.

Hayley said...

But the chicken looks yummy from your photo....

Irene Tan said...

Pity you. Spend so much for a horrible meal. The presentation looks ok but looks can be deceiving. So black listed.

foong: hahaa.. i m sure u would..

Gratitude said...

Poor you!!
I have a feeling that the funny smell was because it was undercooked coupled by it being of the frozen kind. I'm wary of the taste whenever I have chicken and always prefer to buy fresher ones from the wet market instead of the frozen types found at the hypermarts (from Thailand)

pengsan...so bad the food

Diane - It's All Good Until You Burn Dinner said...

Okay...that's a sad meal. I hate when food is so bad it gets wasted, especially meat. If you think about it, the entire bird was probably thrown away because it tasted so bad! Hope the biscuits at home were good!

lena said...

maybe the cook thought it was a lamb..so mad it half cooked for you..
