BAD MEAL AT BARRISTERS

We went to Barristers last Saturday night. Very disappointing meal considering it was R880.00.for the 2 of us. No wine ordered. My starter was snails in garlic sauce- the snails were tuff like leather and the garlic sauce was just awful - no taste of garlic on the snails or the sauce. The 2 Fillet steaks were badly burnt on the outside- but the inside was done perfectly. John's chicken livers were apparently really good. We had to cut off the outside burnt bits of the steak. I actually asked the waiter if the steak was done in a marinade & he said yes, Both steaks were absolutely tasteless-! We have eaten there before and the food was always good. We did'nt complain except about the snails to the waiter as we did'nt want to cause a scene as the restaurant was quite full. 'Maybe the chef was tired after Valentines day the day before.
