The *****ed-Up Momkey

Last night we went to the Chris de Burgh concert, What a talent! What A show! The same, however, cannot be said for the meals at The Brew Monkey at Time Square Casino. Because all the restaurants had been fully booked, we decided to have some drinks and a light meal before the show at The Brew Monkey. We ordered our own drinks at the bar and at six o'clock placed the meal order of two platters with the waitress. By seven o'clock there was still no sign of any platters and we wanted to go to the arena. An SMS from Big Concerts informed us that the start of the show had been pushed forward to 20h30. We decided to wait for the platters. Seven thirty, still no platters. I informed the hostess that we were leaving and to cancel the order. Just then one platter arrived. Ten chips, six sausage disks and four "ribs" in the basket. (For R125!), The ribs were mainly bone and cartilage covered in sticky barbeque sauce. No sign of the second platter. We each ate the chips, sausage disks and tried to eat the ribs (without any success), Being decent people, we decided to pay the R125 but were given a bill for R290. We refused to pay for the second platter we never received, Please avoid The Brew Monkey at all costs, It is not worth the effort.
