The worm in the salad

An utmost disappointment. For the restaurant and the quality of the food at least . If you want bad quality food at high prices , an unfriendly indifferent manager by the name of Bernard to throw at you ugly looks when you complain about the worm in your salad ( literally ) and an outdated buffet style lunch , then you should go to African Hills Safari Lodge . Horrible starters , dry meat , live worms in your child's salad , inedible sour and off deserts , rock hard meat ***** , an absolute insult to any definition of food , nevermind cuisine. The so called manager , Bernard gave me a killer look when I complained that there is a live moving worm in my son's salad. Never interacted with us once. Not before , not after the inccident . He is a boss . Maybe the real bosses of this pathetic business could come down to their senses and get rid of a useless member of their staff , eat from that kitchen and be present sometimes at Sunday lunch . Then maybe , things will get better. Our waitress , Patricia was magnificent though . And they have a drawing card : A pair of tamed elephants with which you can interact. That saved the day somehow and it was worth the effort of driving 90 minutes from Sandton for this disaster of a day , which was planned as a birthday celebration. They should be ashamed of themselves . A bunch of clowns playing hospitality would do better . Over R2500 thrown in the wind. I would have felt better and more satisfied giving this money away instead of fattening the pockets of some useless and unfriendly operator . An absolute disgrace . Been caught once , never again . And I will ensure that everyone I know ( and I know a lot of people) will be informed of this atrocious and ruined birthday experience.
