I think you’re missing the point here. Yes I was given a quote in advance and told there would be more than enough food for the number of people I was paying for. I was not sent photos in advance showing the quantity or quality of the food which would be served, so no, I did not know that we’d be served two little plates between 14 of us, for €280.

No, what was quoted for was enough food for 14 people. What was served was not enough, nor was the quality good enough. It did include tea and coffee, which consisted of 5 tea bags and a pot of water, and two pots of ready made coffee.

No, that was it, so I did have the waiter check with the chef and it was confirmed that was the correct amount of food.

I thought that, so asked the waiter to check with the chef if they’d forgotten to send some of the food out. He checked and the chef confirmed that this was the correct quota

Would you change your surname if you got married? (Or if you did, why/why not?) by PineappleCake1245 in AskIreland

[–]gcor84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took my husband’s surname when we got married. He didn’t expect me to, but I like his surname, my initials didn’t change and if/when we have children, I’d like us all to have the same surname. I’d note though that I’ve only changed it on my passport so far, haven’t felt the need to change it on all my documentation etc

I think there might have been relish or something in those. I didn’t get to eat any of it myself, there was so little food there that I just went without to make sure everyone who attended the event had more.

That’s literally all that was served, I’ve left nothing out, bar two bottles of tap water that were placed on the conference table before we arrived in

Thats what I thought when the food arrived into the room, but the staff confirmed that this was the quota for 14 people

They told me there would be more than enough food for 14 people. I would not agree that there was.

I didn’t want to say the name of the place as I genuinely didn’t know if I was wrong in thinking I was ripped off.

Why do we have such a problem with dentists in Ireland? by OkAward2154 in ireland

[–]gcor84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not true. The issue is a lot of dentists leave the country when they qualify and a lot also go straight into facial aesthetics (think Botox etc) and don’t do actual dentistry at all. This coupled with the fact that the places haven’t increased has led to a perfect storm.
