There is a fantastically bad Google review of Catch at The Old Fish Market at which I burst out laughing. Not so much at the review itself, but at co-owner Sean Cooper’s reply to the one-star rating. The customer complained about a number of things – mainly that they didn’t receive a constant stream of apologies throughout the night – to which Cooper replied: “I watched your party the entire time you were sat, your demeanour was confrontational from start to finish and for whatever reason you clearly set out to pick fault with everything.”
It reminds me of the hilarious Mitchell and Webb Look sketch, in which David Mitchell plays an incredibly pompous waiter who tells his shocked customers (Robert Webb and Olivia Colman) with a voice dripping in disdain: “We were watching you from the kitchen and we all thought you were a dick.” Perfection.
