rooster59 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 What a kerfuffle! Cockroach in the beer at Pattaya Terminal 21 has everyone frothing! Image: Daily News Everyone darted for cover like a startled cockroach after one of the insects was found in a customer's beer at an outlet in the recently opened Terminal 21 in North Pattaya. A woman customer went on Facebook to complain despite not having to pay. A staffer offered her resignation. A deputy manager denied that it was their cockroach. And Terminal 21 issued a letter and promised further action. The offending cockroach was found swimming in the beer at "Beer Fest" on the second floor. Deputy manager Nisa Konthong, 42, told Daily News reporters that all their glasses are kept open side down. The staffer who poured the beer didn't notice one in the glass. She said that their shop doesn't have cockroaches. The suggestion was that it had come from outside in the Terminal 21 complex. It certainly wasn't there when the server delivered it, she claimed. But she accepted responsibility. She said the serving girl had apologized to the customer and said there would be no charge for the beer. The customer reportedly said: "It's too late now". The server offered her resignation. The manager was not on the premises at the time. He said had he been this would never have happened. He said he called the customer to apologize. It further appeared that the customer had been given a bill for food. "If I had been there she wouldn't have had to pay for food," said manager Krit Jamnongphian, 36. The staffer's resignation offer would be considered by executives of Beer Fest, he added. Meanwhile Terminal 21 issued a letter saying they were aware of Beer Fest's actions in the matter. They had offered to have a follow up interview with the customer who had replied to their email with one word: "Kha".

AhFarangJa Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 "Waitress !!!! there is a cockroach in my beer !!!" "Shhhhh, be quiet Sir, or everyone will want one" Not saying it isn't true, but it is the oldest trick in the book to claim a free meal, hence the reason for not accepting the apology, plus, if that was the beer she was drinking, whether real ale or not, I would call it closer to dish water than beer.

It's a German wiessbier and meant to be cloudy. I reviewed my experience on this forum. Good food and one of the best draught beers I've had in Thailand. Sadly, I won't be drinking it again.

Just Weird Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 It's obvious from the froth lines on the glass that a couple of good swigs of that beer had been taken, why was she drinking it if there really was a cockroach in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emdog Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 "The manager was not on the premises at the time. He said had he been this would never have happened." Does he inspect every beer before it is served? Does he spray every glass with insecticide before putting out on rack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossy Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 An Englishman, an Irishman and a Scotsman walk into a bar and each orders a pint of beer. When the drinks arrive they notice that all three pints have a fly cockroach in them. The Englishman just looks at his pint in disgust and pushes it away. The Irishman picks out the fly cockroach with his fingers, throws it on the floor and proceeds to drink his beer. The Scotsman picks the fly cockroach out of his pint, and holds it over the drink saying, "Come on you little git, spit it out!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't doubt you that they do fly, but I've never seen one fly - thank God. Probably in the glass before the beer was poured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
