I was going to post this in the Dundee thread but felt it could get lost in there.
Anyway I was in the Gorgie on Saturday. We do this at least once a season and it's usually fantastic. Saturday though? Where to begin. The place was full as usual but there was quite a few folk in dressed in jeans and jumpers. It's not too hard to put a suit on. That isn't the worst though. The service was appalling. Normally you have a waiter or waitress just for your table. It was 1 for 3 or 4 tables. 10 drinks ordered and 5 arrive. We waited for 20 minutes every single time for more. In the past the drinks kept coming. Then there's the food. It was the usual hospitality stuff but it too was taking an age. Some tables were being served desert at 10 to 3. I think we're usually done with the food by 2 o'clock. Scott Wilson mentioned a few times that it's award winning. Won't be for long as the complaints will be flying in today. £132 is a joke for that.
