My Food Was Cold

Significantly Bothered

Opening

I am SHOCKED that a restaurant of your supposed caliber would serve food at such an unacceptable temperature.

Body

When my entree arrived, I immediately touched the plate (as any discerning diner would) and discovered it was merely WARM. Not hot. Not even very warm. Just... warm. I have a food thermometer app on my phone, and while I didn't actually use it, I am CERTAIN the internal temperature of my pasta was below restaurant standards. I could practically see the steam NOT rising from my dish. When I brought this to your server's attention, they offered to 'have it reheated.' REHEATED! As if I should accept MICROWAVED food when I am paying [PRICE] for this meal!

Closing Demands

I expect a full refund, a complimentary meal at a future date (to be served at the PROPER temperature), and an explanation of how this will never happen again.

Sign-off

Coldly yours,

[YOUR NAME]
