If it’s clearly crap, yes, as your experience sounds. Shonky way of dealing with it as well.
However, I do hate it when folk I may be with (sorry, but always women!), seem determined to pick fault with any aspect of a meal or service. Poking stuff with a fork or commenting on too much/too little salt/seasoning/cooking time etc, as if they are some gastronomic genius.
When you eat out, it’s mainly for the experience someone to cook, serve and wash up for you, whilst enjoying time afforded, chatting with the company and complemented by food that is of a decent quality, and cooked as requested.
If you’re looking for culinary perfection, got to the Tyre-starred establishments!
Sorry, it does annoy me, that.
