Thaï au Lac — Restaurant in Lausanne

When we went in to ask for a table, the waiter ignored us. After 2 minutes we were sat down by another, and had our menus brought. We waited 20 minutes and had to call the waiter over to order. We mentioned the wait and he didn't apologise, just said "a lot of people". Upon looking around, there were about 20 tables full. The starters came at the same time as one of the mains, we had to wait 30 minutes more for the other 3. The food was mediocre, the noodles too sweet.

Anyway after two of us had a coffee after the meal we were expecting to have the coffees deducted from the bill but it was met by an aggressive "you paye", pointing to the bill. So I payed in exchange for this comment. The general experience was bad, when we left the place, nothing to do with the restaurant but police had between 5 and 10 peoples handcuffed sitting on the floor in front...
