点评:This is a review of the Lakeside Cafe inside the visitor centre, not the centre itself as this is excellent, but the Cafe doesn't have a separate review page.
I was very disappointed to be served almost raw (definitely undercooked!) bacon today and felt sick upon realising what I had eaten, After the first bite, I thought it didn't taste right. I scraped off the sauce and noticed the bacon was pink and the fat was pure white - streaky bacon needs to be cooked and the fat rendered. To the touch, the bacon was lukewarm, probably heated by the eggs that sat on top of it. I did not eat any more of the bacon and my husband mentioned it to the Cafe manager while I was in the bathroom feeling very queasy. Rather than apologising, she was very snotty about it and only agreed to take it off the bill when he insisted as I only ate the bit of overcooked egg.
My husband also ordered a club sandwich, which they make differently from anywhere else, with egg mayo, ham and chicken on bread, not toast. He ate it as he was hungry but just seemed a little lazy to not even toast the bread. My daughter had a chicken fillet which was okay (if a little small for the cost) and the reason there are 2 stars and not 1.
I was so shocked at both the food and the response from the manager as we used to love going to the Wetlands Cafe in the Summer several times a year, but I won't eat there again, I'll bring a picnic if attending activities or go into town.
As a side point, I noted that the cafe staff we encountered were Eastern European, and three were no Irish staff that we spoke to.
翻译:这是对游客中心内的湖滨咖啡馆的评论,而不是中心本身,因为这很棒,但咖啡馆没有单独的评论页面。
我很失望今天几乎是生的(绝对是未煮熟的!)培根,当意识到我吃的东西时感到恶心,第一口后,我觉得味道不对。我刮掉酱汁,发现培根是粉红色的,脂肪是纯白色的——五花培根需要煮熟,脂肪需要提炼。摸起来,培根是微温的,可能是被上面的鸡蛋加热了。我没有再吃培根,当我在浴室里感到非常恶心时,我丈夫向咖啡馆经理提到了这一点。她不但没有道歉,反而对此非常不屑,直到他坚持才同意把它从账单上划掉,因为我只吃了一点煮过头的鸡蛋。
我丈夫还点了一份俱乐部三明治,他们的做法与其他地方不同,面包上放的是蛋黄酱、火腿和鸡肉,而不是吐司。他饿了就吃了,但似乎有点懒,连面包都不烤。我女儿吃了一份鸡肉片,还可以(只是价格有点小),这就是为什么有 2 颗星而不是 1 颗星的原因。
我对食物和经理的反应感到非常震惊,因为我们过去喜欢每年夏天去湿地咖啡馆好几次,但我不会再在那里吃饭了,如果参加活动我会带野餐或进城。
顺便说一句,我注意到我们遇到的咖啡馆工作人员是东欧人,与我们交谈的三名不是爱尔兰工作人员。
