Uninvited guests
interrupted my meal.
After work on Thursday, I decided to treat myself to lunch
at browns; I put up a post on browns here a couple of years ago but things have
since gotten better there.
My dearest treats me to impromptu lunches at Browns, I like
the place. It is a nice place with a peaceful atmosphere. The waiters are also
efficient though the last time I was there with dearest; our food came in so so
late, we were almost dying of hunger.
Anyway, back to my lunch On Thursday, so I walked through
the doors of Browns and was greeted by a waiter as I walked down to sit at our
usual spot. The waiter came with the menu and I ordered my food and drink.
Two minutes after the
waiter set my food on the table, just as I was about to dig in, two uninvited
visitors arrived at my table distracting me; it was Mr and Mrs Fly! I hate
flies sooooo much especially when they come around something I am eating(particularly when I am very
hungry), I just feel like once they latch on something you are about to eat, if
you put it in your mouth you get ill immediately, I don’t want to start imagining where they could
have come from. I feel that when one is outdoor flies might invite themselves, but what about indoors?
After spending sometime
multitasking driving Mr and Mrs
Fly away and at the same time trying to eat, I got sort of frustrated and
called the waiter, he apologised and went to get a spray bottle which I am
guessing contained insecticide, he sprayed it around a bit(I think it must have
been odourless because I didn’t smell anything but I was bit concern about how safe that was) the flies disappeared and just
as I was about to relax and enjoy the rest of my food, they appeared again.
In frustration I ate what I could, asked for my bill and left my table to
Mr&Mrs Fly.
The food was very nice, as usual everything was good, only
the flies… Browns is a nice place, I will
go there over and over again BUT the next time I encounter a fly? It must
surely die! or I'll have to pay only half of my bill lol.
Have you had an experience like mine at a place you really
like to go? Would seeing a fly on your table put you off going to a restaurant
you like to eat at?
