A new restaurant opened in town
last week, so I decided to go to the
restaurant to see what the restau-
rant was like. After a few minutes a
waitress came over to the table and
gave me a menu, but the waitress
wasn't very friendly. I ordered
chicken and chips. Half an hour
later, the waitress brought the food.
The food wasn't very good. The
chicken was tough, and the chicken
had a rather strange taste. The
chips were even worse; the chips
were half cold and very greasy. 1
couldn't eat the chips at all.
I called the waitress and asked the
waitress to bring me the bill. The
bill came to £25. I asked to see the
manager. I told the manager that I
thought £25 was too much for such
a bad meal. I gave the manager £5,
and then walked out of the
restaurant. I'll certainly never go to
the restaurant again
