A strong contender for the worst meal out I've ever had. I ordered pate on toast as a starter. The toast was stone cold. The pate was unlike any pate I've had before as it resembled dog food in look and (probably) taste, though I naively told myself it was because it was homemade and an acquired taste. I should have known better. The main was a medium-rare steak that was greyish brown where it should have been pink. The chips were OK, however once we got near the bottom of the shared bowl we noticed a lot of dark hairs. The barman apologised and said he'd point this out to the owner/chef. A couple of minutes later he came back with the explanation from the owner that the dog had got loose in the kitchen! He did seem quite surprised that we clearly considered this to be disgusting rather than a perfectly reasonable explanation. He was a nice guy who seemed embarrassed by the situation he was put in and knocked one of the mains and a round of drinks off the bill, though in hindsight we should have made more of a fuss; I'm left having to hope that we haven't eaten too much on-the-turn meat and dog hair, as well as having a niggling doubt over whether I was served dog food as a starter.
