The Ryan Air of Food !

I've dubbed it the "Ryan Air" of the UK's "fast food industry" and even that rating might be a little too generous for Honiton's franchise !

Wetherspoons are a UK chain of Pub / Restaurants that provide supposedly fast / cheap meals & beer for those on a budget. Trying to save a quid or two Kev and self had got into the habit of visiting Wetherspoons which turned out to be one of crappiest dining experiences H and I have ever undergone - and that's saying something !

Having driven back from Penzance H and I engaged in two days of feverish hunting for appropriate sized bike boxes while spending our evenings desperately trying not to fall ill at Wetherspoons.

The bike box hunting was eventually successful after having scoured most of Devon but our nightly Wetherspoons ritual was becoming less and less appealing.

Tonight's viewing was a classic when one of the waiting staff going too quickly exiting the kitchen dropped 2 large fried Onion rings on the floor and seat of a nearby table. Despite knowing that he'd dropped the onion rings the waiter not only didn't replace what he'd dropped but decided on not picking up the Onion rings despite walking straight past them on his return,

It took the seats owner on return from the bar to remove them no doubt wondering where the hell they'd come from.

A quick view behind the opening kitchen doors showed a mess of plates and waste in the kitchen most of it on the floor (no room) nearly matched by the mess and waste on surrounding tables.

We'd thought that it might just be worth putting up with all of this for the sake of our regular fresh fruit and ice cream intake (some fibre at least) but decided that after being informed 3 nights running that they'd run out of fruit that this whole painful process was not worthwhile.

It was time to go searching for a real fast food joint in town .
