Worst take away you have ever purchased...?

Postby Dog_ger » Mon Oct 11, 2010 7:00 pm

HHHmmmmm? will this be a legal thingy...?

My take away is worth complaining about.

A very reputable company, KF*?

Top Dollar, Little return.

Posted an e-mail but no response from this outlet.

They only want to hear compliments...

I will never buy this product again.

Mawson Lakes.

Moderators... :shock:

Been like that for a while Mr. Dog_ger. I have seen the prices of take away go up and up and the servings go down and down. I have found that their product isn't what it used to be and I hardly eat their food. But it does depend on the franchisee and who ever manages the business. Make a phone call and ask to talk to the manager always helps too.
There have been a few places I have eaten and never again I find some fish and chip places really bad and here in Melbourne we have these shops at certain stations and they say the food is fresh yet it never is and you don't know how long it has been there for. I hate from one of them once as I was peckish and got a sav in batter. I sat on the train took a bite into a very cold sav in batter. I have never eaten from one of them since.

Work next door to a takeaway with "golden arches."

Mixture of experiences, including horribly thrown together feeds, incorrect orders, raw product, etc...

That's stacked up against being completely ignored by staff, but when the owner/franchisee catches them, he would serve you himself, have a dig at the staff, and often give you a free feed.

The superb efforts of the owner is the only reason anyone from my workplace frequents them.

Local KF* isn't worth entering- absolutely shocking service/quality of food etc, and no-one there that gives a hoot about improving.

Never set the bar too high with takeaways, but certain places fall below that very low bar.

the local KF* is no good, but one just a few minutes away is a million times better in terms of flavour

purchased a burger from the golden arches in the foodcourt at colonnades. Open up to get my burger out, and low and behold there is no bun on the bottom of the burger....

Went to a Maccas on the fly one night when me and Mrs Choccies were going out to a sporting event. Running late as usual... :roll: So we dropped into Maccas, grabbed a couple of burgers and proceeded to our seats, got comfy and opened the burgers only for Mrs Choccies to find her burger was missing the bottom half of the bun !! Some 15 year old pimply faced Maccas employee didn't notice an empty box as they started to pile it with lettuce and pickles and meat before putting the top bun on.... Needless to say the burger got returned on the way home...

My worst would have to be a Souvlaki from the caravan outside the Campbeltown (NSW) RSL club, thought I was going to get something close to a Yiros :evil:

Dont have KF* much (usually on a bad Sunday!)

The one at Modbury has been bad for ages but the one at Golden Grove is really good

All depends on the manager I think

I used to stop in at Macca's in Happy Valley to pick up a small OJ in the morning - I'd drink it with my iron supplement. I won't go there any more, though, because they've started watering down their orange juice and it tastes revolting, and also because one time I bought a Filet-O-Fish and they gave me a fish patty in a bun with Big Mac sauce on it. :vom:

Don't eat alot of fast food, but the Maccas at TTP is shit. My missus ordered a wrap and she got one piece of chicken with lettuce on it. Cost her $6. Needless to say she drove back and made them make another one. We don't go there anymore. The Maccas in Holden Hill seems to be alright.

It appears birds were well established in the Palaeolithic era, small Dinosaurs having already evolved feathers many years before... :D
