One Thing That I Really Hate

is when people are unreasonable. I seem to be faced with unreasonableness just about everywhere I travel in Asia. It has to do with the differences between cultures. Today’s story is about a place we ate at last night in Taichung.

I got one of those “set” meals which begins with salad and goes through several courses. These guys forgot my soup. By the end of the meal I didn’t want it. The waitress basically gave us the “too bad” speech and walked away. Hui-Chen had to break bad and get them to take some money off of the bill, but, it took so much stupid talking that I wanted to shoot myself.

This is the place in Taichung that was unreasonable. Its supposedly a Spanish restaurant in the same way that Taco Bell is supposed to be “Mexican”.
