FLAMING GRILL HORROR EXPERIENCE

I can't give this restaurant a zero so I will have to go with one undeserved star. We went for breakfast after having been told how amazing it was. NEVER AGAIN!!! at the steep price of R230 per person and a 9am booking there was a buffet spread so meagre and pathetic, it was actually a joke. On offer were some yoghurts and sp**** fruit with your usual corn flakes. The hot food consisted of: Three pieces of cold fried tomato slices which were everything but fried. Mushrooms with so much pepper, two pieces of hash browns, two sausages, lots of bacon, cold and over done in such a way that it was difficult to cut. And the "Piese de resistance"!! the overdone scrambled eggs filled with sweetcorn! On asking if a fried egg was availble I was told by the waitron that she would bring it to me. After asking for medium eggs, and waiting 15min!! whiled everyone else in the party had already eaten! my eggs arrived. The egg yolk was YELLOW!! cooked to hell and the oil in which the eggs swam made it difficult for the server to put the plate on the table. I actually told them that I did not want this and requested a poached egg, which took 10 min and then was served on a plate, with nothing else. I had to go to help myself to the rest of the food as described above. I found my requested toast on the table, cold and barely toasted. The latte and the fresh orange juice make this post deserve it's one star, but as for the rest..... I will NEVER EVER advise anyone to have this overpriced under delivering breakfast. I can promise you that a Wimpy Breakfast is FAR SUPERIOR! and costs a fraction of the price. Management really needs to be a bit more involved. Just because it is at a fancy restaurant, it does not give it the right to cheat its patrons this way.
