Today, immediately after placing my order and paying for my meal, the Chinese takeout place lost all power. FML

Shouldn't you be able to get your money back? Or at least a certificate for a free meal?

Do you get the Kung Power-outage chicken? ...I'm so sorry

If it a place you regularly go get a ticket for a free meal or just get your money back and go somewhere else that has power for food

I hope the power came back and your matter sorted..

And when the lights came back on, it was a real-estate office and no one knew anything about a restaurant! Dunh-dunh-dunh!

Why did the Chinese takeout place pay for your meal?

Anybody who's ever taken an English class, should get this. No respect for the language anymore.

Ummm. They cook with gas. So what's the problem. A place of business is required to have emergency lighting

As someone who cooked in a restaurant for way too many years, you are the sort of entitled customer that gets us hurt. Yes we cook with gas, and have emergency lighting but everything else in the kitchen (like safety equipment and refrigerators) run on electricity. The generators only provide emergency power to things like emergency lights and the freezer and alarm systems. Emergency lighting is far from designed to let someone cook safely or allow normal business operations to continue. It is to provide the means to see to safely shut down operations and vacate the building without injury or undue harm.

Certificate for a free meal you haven't eaten but paid for? It isn't free unless they refund your money and give you a certificate

The certificate is so the next time they don't pay.
