Local Toby Carvery Vent

Recently went to one near Bromley - Ate and then on the way out went to the gents - While standing there doing my business out the cubical walks one of the chefs apron stil on and hat (doing his belt up as he goes) walks past the sinks straight out the door back to the kitchen.
Wasnt impressed.
my theory on that is that they wash their hands when they get back to the kitchen, some people probably !!!! on their hands, don't wash them and open the door. So as the kitchen staff are supposed to wash their hands before doing anything, they'll have to do it when they get back to the kitchen anyway.0 -
I know its really cheap, but when i say we spend a fortune there, i mean the amount of times we all go along on our girly nights out. And believe me, we put plenty cash towards the bar sales too lmao.2021 Please Be A Better Year0

But should they leave their germs on everything they touch between toilet and kitchen for customers and waiting staff to distribute around the restaurant.
Also, he should not leave the kitchen while wearing his protective chef clothing, it is there to prevent cross contamination.
Just because somewhere is cheap, does it have to be nasty?!0 -
it is nasty.0

no, but if there's somebody elses second hand dribble on the door, they're going to do it anyway.
Personally i wash mine before having a wee.. He's been tucked away in my pants all day but my hands have touched all sorts of things. Plus, if you got stung off a jelly fish people wouldn't be complaining about a bit of wee being splashed about.0 -
I went to one near Windsor and the meat was the toughest I have ever had anywhere, and the vegetables were only warm because of the gravy. Left most of it and e-mailed them, they got their manager to call me, he explained that unless three different carveries complain about the meat, nothing is done0

What's your point? They probably come in 3's or 6's therefore 2 options on the till. They can't just key in a random quantity!!!!
Of course if they said you couldn't order a 3 portion and a 6 portion then you can complain but being an annoying, picky customer doesn't give you the right to complain.0 -

It was probably you that served me because they were as dumb as you.
If i ask for two cheese burgers i want two cheese burgers not one wrapper with two cheese burgers in it. I asked for 9 hot wings, they told me they didn't do 9 hot wings just 3's and 6's, i asked for 6 hot wings and 3 hot wings.... they realised that they can do 9 hot wings and looked sheepish0
