Marc-Marie Huijbregts has had a horrible experience with his local Chinese. The delivery service of the Tilburg restaurant Tensum is really bad, the comedian is bothered.
Sometimes it is really impossible to order food, Marc-Marie Huijbregts complains. He tells in his podcast About a horror experience with the local Chinese. “I had a hassle with Thuisbezorgd.nl yesterday. This was really so peculiar. Tilburg has a very tasty Chinese. Yes, really tasty. Tsenum or something is called (meant tensum, ed.).”
38 minutes
It is difficult for Marc-Marie to remember that name. “Yes, when I see it, I know what it is. Do you understand? Those are those letters on top of each other, that I think: oh yes, that’s here. (…) I don’t feel like reading that completely, so then I think: oh that’s that with a t and an s and an m and a you or something like that.”
Ah, yes, clear. Anyway: “I had ordered and they would come in 38 minutes. I had ordered a lot, because I would do that for a few days. Yes, weird, isn’t it? Because I thought later: I can also let every day come, but I don’t do that. Then I do several things and then I will keep that for a few days.”
Arrogant
The Chinese delivery person is really a bad kid, says Marc-Marie. “That boy is coming and he is a bit not super friendly or something. A bit arrogant. So much of it: yes, here. That’s why I always like it so much if you can tip afterwards, but not in advance. What is the point of giving in advance? You don’t know what someone will be like?”
Marc-Marie does not do that. “So he gives that bag, I close the door and I think: what is little actually. And he is still on his bike and I look at the voucher: ‘Beijing Duck’, but I didn’t order that at all. And Edemama beans. Of course I hadn’t ordered it at all. So I open the door again. I say:”Excuse me, excuse me. “”
But the code
The boy on the delivery scooter spoke English, says Marc-Marie. “I said:”That’s not what I ordered.“So he walks back,” he says: “Yes, but the code.‘Such a code is on top. So I give him that bag and I walk in to get the computer and I see that code. He says: ‘Yes, It’s the same code. ” I say: “No, it’s not.“Totally different letters too.”
“”It’s not the same code!“And then he says:”You have to take it.“I say:”I don’t have to take it. I’m not gonna take it. I’m gonna close the by now.“I say:”Did you give it somewhere else, my food?” ‘No, no, no, but you have to take it.“I say:”No, no. I’m not gonna take it. I’m Gonna Close the Door.“Because I thought: then he just gives me that bag and then I have it.”
Unintelligible
In the end Marc-Marie was eating Chinese food. “So then we see him looking at his phone for a long time. Then I thought: well, then I will call the restaurant. Someone takes it that I really don’t understand.”
From Peking duck to pure anger: Marc-Marie was completely eating at home. And when the right order came to pick up an hour and a half later, the suffering was really complete: he was no longer at home. The Babi-Pangang delivery person tried it with neighbor Arijan van Bavel at number 95, but he did not open it either. What a suffering …
