A group of 7 of us went last night. At first we were seated on a table for 6 and they just tried to squeeze another one on which would have been ok if the 7th person was still the size of a foetus so we asked for a move to a suitable table, which they did to be fair. The first round of drinks came, minus mine. I eventually managed to speak to one of the school boys in primark shirt and ties and ask for my drink. I ended up waiting a further 10 mins for it. After 45 mins we had to ask twice if we could order some food to buy off them, we did eventually. Six of us didn't have to wait long for the starter really but the 7th only got his sea bass 15 mins after we had all finished ours. Mine only took two seconds and one mouthfull to eat. It was a king prawn starter with only 4 prawns in it, they looked like toenail clippings. We ordered a second round of drinks when the starters arrived, 40 minutes it took for the drinks to come even though at one point there were 4 kids behind the bar doing nothing. After two hours of being there I had eaten only a poppadom and 4 prawns each of which got stuck between my teeth they were that small. We kept being told our food was coming even though the table behind us (also a group of 7) arrived after us but got their starter and main while we were waiting for a second drink. We all decided to leave before we got so hungry we didnt have the strength to lift our oddly shaped knife and forks. I walked out picking a prawn out my tooth wondering why we didnt just go to Mumbi spice.
