    True enough. But it seems to me that after being turned down 3 times, it's time to give up on attempting to fleece the restaurant, and to find another one.
    I bet she's been banned from most of the other places in town.
    Seshat's self-help guide:
    1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
    2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
    3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
    4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.

      I'm still trying to wrap my head around the concept of: Oh, my food was lousy, but if I get a free dessert, that'll be freaking delicious!

          Better yet, look at her husband and say, "Okay, I'm going to do your job for you. Watch and learn."

          Turn to his wife, point at her and and say, "That's it bitch! You're fired! Leave or I'll call police!"

          Look at the husband again, with the biggest shit-eating grin on your face say, "By the way, divorces are expensive because they're worth it. You should look into it sometime."

            I told someone this recently and he didn't find it funny. Costing him six figures right now.

            Everyone else pissed themselves laughing.

                And she probably can't figure out why. I mean, how can any restaurant not want a client of such exquisite tastes that she has to have her food made over and over?

                I sure hope she gets banned, and publicly humiliated.

                  Some people are losers in life with nothing going on, and think they can get their rocks off by treating easy targets like customer service workers poorly.

                  She was just being a bitch and trying to get something for free at the same time. I'm glad your co-worker told her off and then ignored her. She doesn't deserve an ounce of respect at this point.

                      That twit has an imbalance or an agenda. Either way, if she returns then she needs a piping hot order of order of Get The F*ck Out!

                        I wonder if she's tried Outback, Olive Garden or Chili's? They give away stuff away all of the time if you whine enough, I've heard. Even if you've eaten everything.

                          Big chains like that usually can afford to be more generous with giving away stuff to placate customers. I'm not under the impression the pub in question is part of some huge chain like an Outback Steakhouse. Also at those places, some regional manager or something will go out of their way to placate a whiny customer so they don't have to deal with them or have a black mark on the store's customer service record. Yes, it's dumb, but that's a corporate environment for you.

                            That's why I was saying that she and her hubby and buddies should go to those places. Much better luck.

                              On the subject of bacon and fat....

                              One of the things that makes a fine piece of meat, including bacon, is typically something known as "marbling", which put simply is fat that is layered in the meat. It is a matter of a balance between the meat and the fat, with too much fat rendering a piece "faty", and too little can cause it to be "tough" or "dry". In bacon, the marbling is very easy to see, with the stripes of red and white. While it is possible to have a piece of bacon with too much fat, removing all the fat would give you something more akin to jerky, in my opinion.

                              More to the point, this woman is ether entirely too picky, spoiled, and/or looking for reasons to complain, whether it is for personal enjoyment or as part of a scam.

                                I'm sure she'll be back. She's got that bad memory, remember?

                                I say you start charging her for every single piece of food that leaves the kitchen because of her order of dissatisfaction.
