Have you ever had a bad experience in a restaurant in the Philippines?

I do, I think I've had seldom of them. I think it is not uncommon to diners everywhere to have, at least once in their life, experience a bad service or bad food or a combination of both in a restaurant/fastfood/eatery/dining establishments. One of my hated experience happened in Chef d' Angelo in SM San Lazaro branch, they might have good food and easy on the budget meals but their service is horrendous. Actually, at that time, I can't find the goodness of their menu offerings because of irritation, I just think that a place like that need to be a little trained in customer service to be able to survive. How about you?

Can I just have the whole page to enumerate our dinning experience? Do you know the reataurant in Tarlac? the one owned by the barrio fiesta owners? well we have some not that nice experience there, the waitress who served wouldn't give in to some little demands we have, like changing our table because the kids want to be near the playground.. another is in Max's in Galeria wherein our food came 30 minutes after. and so many more specially in fast foods. but they say about eating or dinning is never mess up with the one who's preparing your food.. you never know what they may put in there. he he he so what we do is just be kind to them and ignore it, but of course we never leave a tip if the service is that bad. but there are some restaurants that have really nice crews and all. our favorite is oyster boy in metrowalk!

I'm from the Philippines and I think it's so normal to get bad service here LOL! Am I bad or what? But seriously, alot of food establishments here really have bad service despite us, Filipinos, being good at being in the service industry. I remember one time, we ordered from Shakey's at 10am .. the pizza came at 3pm. My officemate was so mad that he never ordered from Shakey's again. We also didn't pay for it.
