Mein Kind wollte gerne Pommes haben, da es nicht auf der Karte stand, fragte ich danach. Aber nein, Pommes gibt es dort nicht. Fand ich tatsächlich komisch, weil wenn Familien gewünscht sind, muss man damit rechnen, dass sich Kinder Pommes wünschen. Als wir uns dann dazu entschieden hatten ein anderes Restaurant zu wählen, da das Kind den Rest auf der Karte nicht mochte, gab ich nett die Karten an der Theke zurück und sagte nur: " Es tut mir leid, wir müssen uns etwas anderes suchen", da wurde ich von drei Mitarbeitern einfach doof angeschaut. Letztendlich haben wir ein Restaurant gefunden, wo es ultraleckere...
