  Underbelly

  We wanted to go to Underbelly next door at 430 pm but it did not open until 5 pm so we ate at Haymarket, the bar owned by the same owners in the same building.We were told by the Haymarket employees that the menu was very similar before we came. Perhaps we should have waited the extra half hour for Underbelly to open because we waited over 1 1/2 hours for our food. When we came in the bar was not busy and the waitresses spent a long time talking around the cashier. It seemed like a social hour . We waited 18 minutes to be seated before we finally chased down a waitress to tell us where to sit. We waited an additional 15 minutes to get a menu. She didn't return and we were just about ready to leave when someone came to take our order. There were almost as many employees as customers but the employees were not interested.
  The waitress remembered my order for blood sausage but forgot my husband's order. After a long wait I received my appetizer but we had to remind the waitress about his order and wait another 45 minutes for his food. I did not want to eat when he was hungry and my food became cold waiting. I grew up with wonderful delicious juicy, fatty Polish pork blood and barley kishka blood sausage. When you ate it the crisp casing snapped and there was so much delicious juice. The blood sausage at Haymarket was horrible. It was dried clotted blood with no casing, no seasoning, no juice and no good taste. We paid and left. I will never return.
