Good morning,
Today Monday, October 3, 2022 at 12:30pm, having eaten at this place with a work colleague. I had a menu of royal cheese and a chicken mac just the sandwich. My co-worker got a gluten-free burger menu. After eating, we started to feel unwell. Stomach... See More aches and nausea came. 3 hours later we were both vomiting. I thought the meat was a bit weird.
It would take everything to do a Control because someone is doing things that should not be done, playing with people's health. I don't think the hamburger was old but the meat was thawed and refrozen. I am still in a lot of pain with a very bad stomach ache.
Really don't let people like that go on.
I had never had a problem in this restaurant where I love to eat. But with this experience I think I'll calm down for a while, see forever. | Symptoms: Vomiting, Nausea, Stomach Pain See Less
