We ordered food from Minerva's today, one of the expensive joints in town. I bit into my food and crunched down on something hard and before I could spit it out the swallow reflex took over. I looked in the container and saw some burned crust and didn't think anything of it. After the next 2 or 3 bites I bit something hard again and was able to spit it out. It looks like if you were to make a second cut on the tip of a caulk tube piece of plastic which makes me think I must have swallowed the first cut piece! I took the box and piece back to the restaurant. All they could think about was getting me out of there quick and in a (this happens all the time demeaner) gave me a gift certificate andsent me on my way. They were gonna keep the piece of plastic but I told them I wanted it back so I could have the lab examine it and tell me what I swallowed. THEY still had that look of (this happens all the time) !!! I did get upset at the end but it was because of the lack of caring for the customer, are you allright? Can we call you later to make sure you are ok?.......Yeah right! Like they would have asked that!

I'd be ticked off too. It's frustrating when the restaurant substitutes apathy for a little empathy. I think sometimes they mistake an expression of concern as an appeal for a hand-out. Sorry to hear baout your bad experience.
