How to ruin a communion with food
Como arruinar una comunión con la comida
Teníamos todas las dudas acerca de la comida y así fue... En mi propia mesa sirvieron un meloso de ternera con una esquina llena de MOHO. A partir de aquí solo un comensal de la mesa se lo acabó y básicamente porque no se comió el primer plato. Al momento lo reclamé y con el camarero delante del plato, negó que fuese MOHO.
Sin ganas de discutir le comenté que lo hablaríamos al final y así fue. Mi sorpresa fue que Tere, propietaria del local, junto con la cocinera, lo seguían negando y encima reconocieron de que no habían visto ni el plato: entonces de que narices estamos discutiendo si no lo habéis visto... No tuvieron ni el detalle inicial de pedir perdón y de reconocerlo, motivo por el cual me he decidido a compartir mi experiencia en la web.
Añadir que en el aperitivo del jardín, nos juntamos dos comuniones de unas 50 personas en total y que las bebidas enlatadas eran servidas por un solo "camarero" con poca experiencia y agobiado como es lógico. No habían ni servilletas... La base del paté de garbanzos del primer plato, era "hormigón" de lo espeso que era. Por cierto aún estamos esperando la aceitera que pedimos para mirar de rebajarla un poco. Igual que mi hija, que todavía está esperando el pastel de comunión de su hermano, pero claro como estaba sentada en la mesa con los niños, se les debió olvidar. Por cierto nuestro propio hijo juntamente con sus primos y amigos tampoco lo probaron.
Saben ganarse muy bien al niño de la comunión con sus "regalos" (nadie regala nada) y efectivamente organizan una buena fiesta pero la calidad de la comida y del servicio deja muchísimo que desear. Nos dijeron que tenían cocina propia pero creemos que la utilizan solo para calentar y adornar los platos.
Casualmente 5 días antes les llamé para anular un comensal sin éxito, lo acepto al estar por contrato, pero me dijeron que técnicamente era imposible porque el meloso de ternera ya estaba hecho. No me extraña que al servirlo tuviera MOHO, llevaba 5 días hecho...
Resumiendo, cada uno es libre de elegir donde celebrar sus fiestas familiares o simplemente sus comidas de fin de semana, pero a nosotros nos arruinaron la nuestra en un día tan especial para la familia.
Hasta nunca.
We had every doubts about the food and so it was .... On my own table they served a beef stew with a corner full of RICE. From here only one diner at the table finished it and basically because he did not eat the first course. At the moment I complained and with the waiter in front of the plate, he denied that it was RUST. Unwilling to argue I told him that we would talk at the end and it was. My surprise was that Tere, owner of the premises, along with the cook, continued to deny and acknowledged that they had not seen the plate: so what the hell are we discussing if you have not seen ... They did not even have the initial detail To ask for forgiveness and to recognize it, which is why I have decided to share my experience on the web. Add that in the garden aperitif, we got together two communions of about 50 people in total and that the canned drinks were served by a single "waiter" with little experience and burdened as it is logical. There were no napkins ... The base of the chickpea pate of the first course, was "concrete" of how thick it was. By the way we are still waiting for the oiler we asked to look at lowering it a bit. Like my daughter, who is still waiting for her brother"s communion cake, but of course she was sitting at the table with the children, they should have been forgotten. By the way our own son along with his cousins and friends also did not prove it. They know how to win the child of communion very well with their "presents" (nobody gives them anything) and they do organize a good party, but the quality of the food and service leaves a lot to be desired. They said they had their own kitchen but we think they use it only to heat and decorate the dishes. Coincidentally 5 days before I called them to cancel an unsuccessful diner, I accept it on contract, but they told me that technically it was impossible because the beef stew was already done. No wonder that when serving it had MoHO, it had been 5 days done ... In short, everyone is free to choose where to celebrate family parties or just their weekend meals, but we ruined ours on such a special day for the family. SEE YOU NEVER!!!!!!
