where’s my friggin’ beef briskette
fara | 11/7/2006 | 4:33 pmpregnant lady went downstairs during lunch.
made a detour to one of the many bank branches located near the lobbies. completed transaction within 5 minutes of taking her number.
pregnant lady at loss of what to eat – tummy grumbling, feotus kicking – decided to head for that french outlet opposite the south american chicken outlet.
was waited upon by a trainee waitress – who answered most of pregnant lady’s questions re: the new items on the menu with ‘i don’t know.. i am new’
i no understand… why shouldn’t you know?? are you not even curious of what you’re serving????
itu pun sabo lagi. just ordered the bloody new item on menu (beef briskette (wtf?) – which was supposedly on a lunch deal – complete with soup-of-the-day and some fancy dessert)
was twiddling with atom while waiting for her order. 5-6 minutes after this pregnant lady placed her order, the manager came to her and explained that the lunch deal is no longer valid – would you like to change your order?
thoughts that ran in pregnant lady’s mind and was actually verbalised:
1. why the heck was the item left on the menu if it is no longer valid? you’re just plain asking for trouble.
2. why the heck didn’t the waitress tell me this upfront, while i was asking a multitude of questions re: the new items?
to both queries, the manager just sheepishly apologised.
pregnant lady had to go through the menu again – asked for chicken bolognese. manager said – we’re sold out of that itemÂ
what??? how can u be sold out when it’s only the start of lunch time? who the heck eats pasta in the morning?
tempted to just walk out – but since have invested 15 minutes in waiting/placing order/getting pissed, decided to stick it out and ordered chicken cordon bleu (which thankfully, they still had stock 
)
so 5-8 minutes later got her order (the drink only arrived after the second attempt at ordering although no changes were made) – ate her meal – paid friggin 24 ringgit inclusive of lousy service and so-so f&b and left still fuming.
so used to love this place – but am slowly hating it.
ala, u shud have just left…they dun deserve your money (24 hengget plak tu) with that kind of svc… klcc pulak tu yer? how degrading…
tarik nafas …. tarik nafas again
dura:
come to think of it.. i prolly should have. but the factors of being extremely hungry and in my preggy condition, not in the mood to go food-outlet-hunting
wegra:
tu dah ‘wooooo-zhaaaaaa’ bebanyak laa tu(ala2 bad boyz 2) if not.. manager ngan trainee aku cuci.. but that would cost me precious lunch hr minutes..
i hate it when the restaurants that you like of what they have then later after only a couple of months or longer (or shorter mebbe) turned not soo good anymore.. why cant they maintained their services eh?? food quality and service per say!! kan??
