Some places should come with a warning.....

Hello,

Today has been a very interesting day.

First of all, I spilt coffee on part of my keyboard, and so some keys don’t work, or they add lovely groups of letters after them. Thanks for that guys. I’m gonna wait until tomorrow before I start to panic, but typing on this thing is rather annoying.

Second of all, me and a friend went to the local Chinese buffet place in Toledo. There’s only one of these places in Toledo, and after this visit, I know why.

When we first walked in, there was only two other customers; we didn’t think much of this as, being a Sunday, a lot of places aren’t even open on a Sunday, so I thought it maybe just a slow day.

We sat down, and was told we could eat whatever we wanted. Awesome. However, there wasn’t actually a lot of food under the hot plate. No problem, as many of these places cook and replace the food as it goes along. We ate the first plate. A bit cold, but no problem. However, we there for half an hour , and no additional food had been put down. A bit strange, but maybe they were just having a break? They were sitting by the bar, chatting away, but no problem.

After two plates, we heard the sounds of cooking. Hmm, maybe they are making more food? We waited for a bit before we tried the dessert. They did indeed bring out food; but not for us, the customers. Four sat down and began to eat some kind of soup and meat that they had made for themselves.

So, we decided to try the desserts. The door to the freezer wouldn’t open. “Ask them how the door opens my” my friend asked me.

“I can’t”, I replied, “they’re eating.”

We waited for a while, and then asked for the bill, after watching the poor chef, who didn’t get to eat any of the soup, put cling film over the remaining food on the “hot” (more like cold) plate. Funnily enough, the bill came with no real wait- no qualms about taking our money then.

We left.

On a side note- the sushi was quite nice.

:D
