| - I will NEVER go to Littlefish again!
Never seen such rudeness.
Always liked going for their Huevos or Benedict. Went with the family on Family Day for brunch.
On Family Day the place was predictably very busy. Strange too then that they only had one waiter handling the entire floor.
We were seated such that my back was to the kitchen, my wife & daughter facing back towards the kitchen)
All 3 of us ordered. For a change I thought I'd try the pancakes, since I read such raves about them. I also ordered a side of 'crispy bacon' along with my main.
They even call it 'crispy bacon' on their menu.
Our food came, but my bacon was rubbery, fatty and undercooked.
I flagged the very busy waiter to let him know I couldn't eat it, and asked if he could bring a smaller plate to take the bacon back & have it cooked more until its crispy.
Instead he took my entire plate
A few minutes later my plate returned, with the bacon slightly cooked more - 2 pieces were more done than the other 2, which were still fatty & underdone (I'll post a photo). And they were sitting in a puddle of bacon grease on my plate.
I tried to turn to flag him again, but he had made his way back towards the kitchen and was not looking back into the dining room.
Seeing that he was busy, I got up and walked back with my plate, to ask again if it could be cooked more. He took my plate. I went back to my seat.
What happened next completely shocked me!
The cook/owner (the man with the horn-rimmed glasses) brought my plate back out, slammed it down on the table in front of me and said brusquely and rather loudly "I can't cook it any more!!" And he stomped back to the kitchen.
As I turned to look at him, still in shock, he would look up repeatedly shoot me glares from back in his kitchen.
I hadn't complained up to that point, merely asking twice if they could just cook the bacon more. As I said, I was in shock, and enraged at this guy's attitude. My wife & daughter were also shocked.
I finally started to eat the pancakes, and they frankly were crap. My worst pancakes at home are better than these.
I will NOT be returning to Littlefish. Ever!
There are far too many good choices in The Junction/Ronces/BloorWest to have to deal with a #$% like this.
Happy Family Day!
