How difficult can it be ...?

My work is going through a period of massive expansion and change at the moment, and that includes the kitchen.  We have a new Chef Manager who has brought in new staff and is trying to bring old ones up to speed.  He's a great guy, so I'm sure in the long run everything is going to be fantastic!

However, in the meantime, this has meant that ordering lunch from our kitchens has become an experience that's not for the faint hearted!

Last week, I ordered a cheese and mushroom omelette, and when I collected it, there wasn't a hint of a mushroom in sight. But it was deliciously cheesy, so I wasn't too disappointed.

Today, in an act of supreme optimism, I ordered the same thing and - yes, you guessed it - when I collected it, it was positively bursting with mushrooms. Shame it didn't have any cheese ...

I'm almost tempted to order it again tomorrow to see if it turns up without the eggs!



Dean wouldn't be impressed!

Well at least it wasn't an egg white omelette - ew!

At the moment, I wouldn't rule it out!!!

*raises an enquiring eyebrow* Perhaps third time's the charm and you'll get mushrooms, cheese, and eggs? ;)

LOL, this entry really made me smile. :-) Reminds me of the time I ordered a grilled cheese at my college cafeteria, and it had no cheese in it. Grilled bread. beats the time my friend got one grilled with the plastic wrapper still on the cheese. And the time I got a green hot dog. Ah, memories.

LOL! Oh, dear. Maybe you should order something different. Then you might get the omelette with both mushrooms and cheese.

I'm glad to advise that I ordered mushroom soup yesterday and I got a bowl of soup that ddefinitely tasted of mushrooms - so things are looking up!

Order a plain omelette; maybe then you'll get one loaded with everything. :)

That's an idea :)

Properly seasoned, they still taste like cardboard, honestly lol!

That is absolutely hilarious. It's like ordering a BLT sandwich without the B. I guess these chefs don't really know much about cooking now, do they. If they get something that simple wrong, it makes me wonder what else they don't make correctly. I shudder to think about it.
