Only Looked Good

My cousin treated us to an expensive restaurant for her birthday. We were thrilled as there were a lot of raving reviews of the place.
We ordered a meat lover set and it looked and smelt beautiful. Surprisingly although it did taste good it was too oily. Two of us who were eating it actually felt sick and nauseas because of too much oil.
Have you ever been disappointed by food? It looked good and smelt good. I was so sure it would be the best but it wasn’t.

I am often disappointed in restaurant food. These days I rarely aea out as I can do better at home. I can prepare things just like the way I like it. No disappointment!

@flapiz I don't cook anything at home. I eat everything uncooked, mostly fruits and vegetables.
This is my food consumption for today.
1 small melon
A huge bowl of grapes
Some bananas (6)
A huge salad with squash, tomatoes, 1 lettuce, 1 hot pepper.

I get disappointed if bread is stale.

Sometimes it is stale despite it not being expired. We must check it’s tightly sealed.

It is always so disappointing when you eat something that looks so good, only to find out that the food is bad or mediocre.

didn't you write a complaint about the oily food? i think there are suggestion boxes near the counter.

Yes, a lot of times. But it’s more disappointing if the food is on the expensive side and you just get an average-tasting food, poor customer service, etc.

That is exactly the term for this. Expectations versus reality.

I rarely take a chance now when eating out unlike when I was younger and more adventurous, I now read reviews and ask friends before spending hard earned money.

Are you the type that complains or do you just never ever come back?

Exactly! The main point we are eating is because we want to “taste” goodness. We are not just paying to watch it.
