There are some other contenders for "worst," but this is the most fun story to tell.
Restaurant in the Netherlands. We walk in, there's a podium and a sign to please wait for the hostess. We wait for several minutes, finally get impatient and walk around the restaurants. Find two young girls chatting away in the back. They notice us, but continue their conversation for another minute, then ask us what we want. We ask to be seated.
No problem, they seat us. Another 5 or so minutes go by, we get up and find the girls again. "Can we have some menus, please?"
It didn't get any better from there :P
Ever since that I avoid all sit down restaurants in that country, full stop. Luckily, I don't mind döner kebab for breakfast lunch and dinner!
- Jedd 6y agoYeah, that would put anyone off. I've only spent a week in Amsterdam, but I don't recall any negative experiences at all. When travelling I do tend to eschew touristy areas - other than having to look at specific places / objects, access museums or historic sites, etc - then a quick escape to less tourist-heavy areas. I'm sure we all do the same in places we live, and therefore know well, but I guess holiday mode puts us in a more sanguine mood.
