What to do when you have an awful meal at a Michelin starred restaurant?
Wondering if anyone here has ever had a really sub-par meal at a Michelin starred restaurant. This was my experience on Saturday night: It was a fixed price menu. The first three courses were spectacular. The rest of the courses ranged from bland to literally inedible. Did you reach out directly to the restaurant? Did you in some way contact the guide? I'd dined at numerous Michelin restaurants previously --- and this wasn't small stuff like a white napkin when I was wearing a black dress (though that happened too). I felt ripped off by the restaurant -- and it also dinged my trust in Michelin a little bit. Any guidance you can provide would be appreciated. UPDATE: I reached out to the restaurant via DM on Instagram. They responded, albeit taking no responsibility for things like the same dish being cooked one way for my dining partner, another way for me, and saying that was intentional. No concessions offered. Ummmm. OK. Anyway, resolved and thanks to all of you for chiming in on your own experiences. Except the guy who said no one cared but commented anyway.
