Whenever I get homesick for Sydney I remind myself that you can't get good, reasonably priced French food in Sydney!<BR/><BR/>Norm - I had 2 different pink champagnes on the weekend, and the besserat was definitely my favourite. As you can tell by the colour the piper has a little too much fruit!<BR/><BR/>Thanks Teresa, I did have a lovely birthday weekend! I think our waiter was new and just wasn't dealing with a busy Saturday service.<BR/><BR/>Dee - I think you can tell a good restaurant by how they deal with problems. And you will love the bacon!Alicia Foodycathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11931796992646884249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454805966928474735.post-28687418887664747622008-09-15T14:54:00.000+01:002008-09-15T14:54:00.000+01:00Happy birthday!

Don't let the lack of proper customer service ruin you birthday weekend. REstaurant personnel are only human, so they can be incredibly busy or incredibly stupid.
