Complaints & Bailouts
This weekend I told Katie we were too young to put up with bad service and crappy restaurants. But I think the saying is usually employed by old folks -- they don't take no gruff and their time is short, right?Either way, we're on our way to forging a no-nonsense policy.
Over the summer, we walked out of Ike's in Minneapolis because of a dirty glass and some deceit about their offering breakfast. This weekend we walked out of Red Chopstix, a new Staunton restaurant, because it was buffet-only, had seating like a cafeteria, and felt a bit like a sauna.
And in honor of Hunter S. Thompson, we penned three energetic complaint letters. PDFs:
+ Tribe hummus
+ Wendy's
+ CVS

Stick it to the corporation, helpless consumers!
I've always avoided being too vocal about disappointment with restaurant service. Mainly because of the fact that these are the people handling your food, and I don't want people handling my food who got chewed out by their boss because of me, even if they deserved it.
I guess the only situation where I'd walk out or complain via letter would be if I knew I would never, ever, return.
Loogey lattes, my friend, loogey lattes...
