点评:I went to the Fishbourne with my family last Sunday for a Sunday meal. There was 7 of us - two ordered chilli, two ordered sausage and mash and three ordered the Sunday roast. We were met by a waitress who was less than pleased to be working (and that’s putting it nicely) but continued with our meal regardless. The chilli was advertised as ‘spicy’ and ‘homemade’ however when it arrived it was bland, mild and lacking any sort of flavour. We could’ve understood if it was not spicy (despite what it said on the menu!) but still flavoursome but it absolutely was not. The rice was also not properly drained, resulting in the plate swimming with rice water. We left the table and quietly complained at the bar and asked if the chilli could be made spicier and the waitress took both plates away.
The plates returned less than 30 seconds later to our shock and the waitress told us ‘the chef is in a bad mood so he dumped a load of chilli flakes on top’. She definitely was not wrong! There was half a jar of chilli flakes on top of each plate - not stirred in or changed but insultingly thrown on top. The fact that the waitress had told us that the chef was in the bad mood absolutely did not help and should never have been said.
At this point, we fully sent our food back and said we would not eat it. We complained to the manager, to her credit, was fantastic. She was hugely apologetic and could not believe what she was hearing. As the other members of the party left most of their meal, she discounted our entire food and drinks - which was hugely appreciated.
We also asked to speak to the chef (Jake Gallagher), who did not end up speaking to us as we didn’t want the serving staff to have to relay a tricky message if ‘he was in a bad mood’. It is safe to say we will not be returning and certainly do not recommend The Fishbourne to anyone!
翻译:上周日,我和家人去了菲什伯恩餐厅吃周日大餐。我们一共七个人——两个人点了辣椒,两个人点了香肠土豆泥,三个人点了周日烤肉。服务员接待了我们,她不太愿意工作(这么说还挺好听的),但还是照做了。辣椒的广告语是“辣”和“自制”,但上桌时却寡淡无味,毫无滋味。虽然菜单上写着“辣”,但味道还是不错的,我们也能理解它不辣(虽然菜单上写着“辣”!),但味道确实不错,结果就是完全不辣。米饭也没有沥干,导致盘子里全是米水。我们离开餐桌,悄悄地在吧台抱怨了一下,问辣椒能不能再辣一点,服务员就把两个盘子都收走了。
不到30秒,盘子就被拿回来了,让我们大吃一惊,服务员告诉我们“厨师心情不好,所以在上面撒了一大堆辣椒碎”。她绝对没错!每个盘子上都放了半罐辣椒粉——既没搅拌进去也没换,只是被无礼地扔了上去。服务员告诉我们厨师心情不好,这话根本没用,根本不该说。
这时,我们把所有食物都退回去了,并表示我们不会再吃了。我们向经理投诉了,值得称赞的是,她做得非常好。她非常抱歉,简直不敢相信自己听到的。由于其他人都剩下了大部分食物,她就把我们的所有食物和饮料都打了折——我们非常感激。
我们还要求和厨师(杰克·加拉格尔)谈谈,但他最终没有和我们说话,因为我们不想让服务员在“他心情不好”的时候转达这种难以启齿的信息。可以肯定地说,我们不会再来菲什伯恩餐厅了,也绝对不会向任何人推荐这家餐厅!
