A bit of a bi#@h Session

Not fishing related but realy peeved. Tonight on the way home from our shop we decided to get some Red Rooster for dinner. (first time in over 8 months.). we pulled up in the drive through and were served straight away , no probs, put our order in and one item not available so settled for something else. We went the BIG DEAL. Got home and opened the big box to find a piece of chicken about the size of a Quail. 2 chicken strips that were over cooked and an amount of cold stidgy chips that wouldnt have fed a baby (total count including ones that were 2cm long was 20 ). .   . Now i remember why we dont buy takeaway anymore but take home from our own shop. spent $30 on what would have been a feed for 1 , so much for their so called BIG DEAL

thats why we now don't drive off before checking our orders at all take away drive throughs.
We got caught with the wrong meals once to often and even had the totaly wrong order given to us before!

so moral of the story is chatch more fish and fry it yourself rather...lol

I wouldnt eat there if you paid me

When I lived in Mosman Park Red Rooster was one of tha only take away joints.    I used to wake up super hung over (on most occasions still drunk) and would rather starve than hit them up.  Luckily for me there was a bottle shop close by that sold chips!!!!Only problem there was that I would by some booze get home and realize that I didnt buy any food. LOL

Do what my uncle does and check ya food while there and if it doesnt look like the ad ( chips full out the top of the box ) etc demand it to be re filled and re served to ya just like the ads. It works for him every time but its pretty embarracing lol!

I went to Red Rooster once

Tue, 2010-04-27 11:05

and they told me they didn't have any chicken. I asked what else could you order at a take away chicken shop and the girl said chips.

Complain

Tue, 2010-04-27 14:39

Ring up and complain, most people just let it go and nothing happens to their service.

Twice I've rang in to complain about KFC, once from Two Rocks and the other from Quindalup when I'd bought it in Joondalup and Busso respectively and got a replacement feed.They asked if I could bring it back in there and then---NOT BLOODY LIKELY, when I was some 50ks away.

normally do get something

Tue, 2010-04-27 21:20

normally do get something from our shop but we were flat out and forgot to get ourselves anything to eat and we had run out of our ready made meals so it was decided to get something on the way home. big mistake and wont be doing it again. Fisho Ron, yeah we think our pizzas are the best around.we did do lunchtime pizzas for a while but they never took off but with the cooler weather coming on we will be trying it again. even tho you can still get a 12inch pizza from us for as little as $10. made fresh to order.............
