Typical lunch during a workday
I'm sure pretty much everyone eats something for lunch during the workday.
Different people have different preferences: some people like to cook their lunch at home in advance and bring it to work; some people order food from delivery companies; some people like to have lunch in a restaurant that might even be located inside their building and some people just don’t eat during the workday (yes, I know some of them).
I could miss some options for having lunch during the day, but I haven’t missed one that is probably the most popular: having lunch in a restaurant or a cafe.
The reason I'm writing this is that I just can't help sharing with everyone the news that I've changed the place where I usually went for a lunch though didn't like its atmosphere at all.
Here are some major points why I rate it low. The music. I agree that it is very personal but every single day they play the same tracks which are not suitable to accompany the lunch (too loud, too obsessive, sometimes real earworms). Fabric tablecloths that are not changed during the day in most cases. Imagine a peak period when people come and leave so often, they eat their soups and other meals that even might not be so easy to eat fast and don't stain the covered table. So you come after the peak hours have passed and sit in front of the table covered with this dirty tablecloth so that you just can understand what's on the menu today by looking at those stains and small pieces of food that are not easy to remove by simple moves that waiters who work there do. Last, but not least: the staff. Service quality is a huge issue in many places in our country but people who work here just have no clue how to serve clients. They can not say hi to you and right ask you what you order is and of course without wondering whether I'm ready to place it or not. Their managers are so bad mannered that I've heard a lot of bad language from them while both yelling at their waitress and talking behind clients' back.
I could give more points and more examples but it's time to sleep now and as a bonus I uploaded the look of the lunch served that I tried first time in the new place that I recently discovered. It costs 200 rubles ($3.5 or about 3.2 eur) and it consists of tomato cream soup, a cabbage/carrot fresh salad, a fish rissole with mushed potatoes and several pieces of bread.
Have a nice lunchtime!
