It is not illegal to open another persons mail unless you intend to commit fraud - this is frequently incorrectly posted
I live in my head - I find it's safer there:p

if its somewhere that you've been in the past that was good maybe worth emailing a complaint to try to get some vouchers or a free meal and give it another chance, otherwise just accept its a shithole that will probably close down and maybe open up under some decent management in a few months.0

Totally off topic, but your user name has me in stitches...love it!!:rotfl:0 -
Ok just an update for anyone else who finds themselves in the same position.
You as consumer have the right to state that its not as described and its for the VENUE to prove to you that it is. So in the casae of the salsa - they would have the option of doing a number of things eg shwing me the chgopping board where the tomato onion and coriander was chopped to make the salsa :rolleyes: or showing a jar etc.
If its not "as described" you are entitled to a refund if you have paid in advance.
Advice comes from a Consumer Protection Officer in a LA.
Im going to write to them and let them know, and just so y'all know
