The worst lunch... EVER !!!!

Just another day at work ... time passed by and it was lunch ... Kisi ke bhejey mein bulb jalaa... Chalo khaana khaane baahar jaatey hain...

My team mates and i are ever ready to go out and have food... bas kisi ke bolney ki der rehti hai..and of course jeb mein atleast 100 rupiye hone chaahiye..:)

So we set out... kisi restaurant ki khoj mein... kitchen ko khallaas karne... We reached Church street and found our intended destination closed... EMPIRE RESTAURANT ... yes the one made famous by our CM's son..

All disappointed we moved on... somebody in the team mentioned about another place... called QUEEN's... sounds royal doesnt it...?? Aagey chalo.........

Andar aaye toh lagaa "itna andheraa kyon hai bhai..???? "... then realised - some ambience crap...!!
the jagah was alright... everything given the rural and rough look... the seats...table... walls had carvings of something like the Harappa civilisations...shaayad hotel owner ke bacchon ne banaaya tha... Investment almost nil...maan-na padega owner dimaag waala hoga..!!

Then came the time to order some stuff... bolte hain nah pet mein chuhe daudte hain... aisa hi kuch samjho... Saw the MENU...:)) !!! Prices looked a lil over the top but we assumed qty bhi milega :) Then came hamaar (interchange the 'm' and 'r' and put an 'i' at the end) pyaara waiter

.. we were four guys at the table.. first ordered a Chicken Kabaab (aaha..sunke muh mein paani!!)... poocha kitne piece aayange ?? Bola 6 pieces Sir...Theek hai le aao...
Then socha roti-shoti chicken gravy-vavy mangaayen...so ordered a chicken gravy... poocha chaar ke liye theek hai nah bhai... Haskar bola... No sir its only for two...
WAT NONSENSE>... 110 bucks and for two..!!!! Well... phir bhi ek hi order kiye...:(

Ab aayega mazaa khaane mein socha sab ne... par aisa nah tha,,
Kabaab ek skewer mein laaya... toh dekhe 6 chote-chote chote-chote pieces they.. chicken hi tha... par 130 Rs mein 6 teeny tiny pieces... wat crap man...!!! Do the math...:)

Wondered how small the phulkas we ordered wud be.. and how less the gravy.. Phir mere colleague ki nazar padi doosrey table par... kuch dish tha grav jaisa ek chote se bowl mein... bowl ka spoon saala bowl se badaa tha..!! Well 110 mein gravy utna hi milna tha ji...

Well...kabaab toh ek mint mein khatam... phir kiyaa intezaarr........... Khaana la de bhai... bhookh almost mit gayi thi... log jo humaare baad aaye khaana khatam karke jaa rahe they.. aaj hum bakre they shaayad...:( Well roti-gravy aaya toh kisi tarah khaane lage... bas yahaan-vahaan nahi dekha ki sab khatam... ab kya karen yaar... bhookh lagi hai.. aur paise bhi khrach ho gaye.. aaj koi treat dedo bhai..!!!

Meanwhile baahra kuch log dikhe... ek line mein khade...pataa chala waiting mein hain.. we laughed... aisi jagah mein aane ke liye log line lagaye hain...!! Paagal honge... jaise hum ho gaye they...

anyway... ordered some more... gave the angry/irritated/frustrated look to the waiter... but wat wud he do... finally came the bill... Bill toh bahut jaldi le aaya .. aur bahut badaa bhi...

Everybody frustrated to the core... paise de diye... aur nikle baahar... nobody else seemed to be bothered about paying up so much for so little... maybe sabke paas paisa tha.. ya doosron ko (read dates !) impress karne laaye they... but we'll not know...

Moral of the lonnnnnnng story : Never go to Queen's, Church Street,Bangalore...!!!
