So today(technically yesterday), I took my friends for the treat that was due earlier. The purpose of the treat was dual- for my birthday and also for getting placed. But my buddies were expecting me to give two treats. Like there is any possibility for that. I had also combined the treat with two other guys who had gotten jobs.
There really weren't any high points about the treat except the above paragraph. As a matter of fact the treat did not go well. No, it was because we had any fight or something. It was because of the food.
We used to go to the restaurant regularly. Although I was never very happy with the food there, my friends always seemed to like it there. All that changed today.
We had decided that we will have lot of starters today. We ordered many too(actually not that many, just a tad above the usual). It all started with the Thai fried rice that a pal of mine ordered. I had ordered Thai noodles. Both the dishes were a disaster. I couldn't get my hands on many starters as well since I did not want anybody to have less.
The fried rice came before my noodles. It tasted horrible. My friend couldn't eat much. He just ate it for the sake of having ordered it. I began to think that my noodles wouldn't be any better either and I was right. In fact, the noodles was worse than the rice. I couldn't eat mush really. Actually I would have eaten only four handfuls(and by handful, I mean a very little amount). I thought about returning the food. But a friend of mine advised against. So, I just left it. We decided that we will take them(thai rice and noodles) back to the hostel for someone else to eat.
When we thought that only our dishes were a disaster, we were proved wrong. We had ordered for dragon chicken and chicken manchurian after that. I was like, how could a hotel mess up chicken!! I mean they were worse. But the only good thing was that some of the food ordered on the other side of the table was better than ours. I ate some fried rice from my friends'. Finally I had ordered a couple of naans and ate them with a chicken gravy which my friend had actually ordered to be dry dish. But since they did not have it to due to some sort of mix-up,we settled for the gravy. It tasted pretty good with the naan.
Despite me not being able to eat most of the dishes, I was surprisingly full. I finally ordered strawberry milkshake with ice cream. When I thought things couldn't get any worse, they did. I did not like the milkshake either. May be something was wrong with my tastebuds because one of my friends said it tasted good and another said it was worse like it had rotten or something. Well, I thought it was normal and not to my liking because I had actually expected to be better than normal.
So that about wraps it up,a normal treat that had gone worse than normal. Oh and one more thing we decided not to tip the waiter. Who would?
