Word to eat dinner and have 2 bottles of beer before going home. since one of them is a vegetarian, we requested to have our food customized. i asked to remove the dried pusit on the spicy veggie salad and the other indian asked for a tuna sandwich. the tuna sandwich came out with just the patty so we were quite confused why. my friend called the waiter and asked were the bun is. i think the two had a misunderstanding with regards to the ordering. the servers are not quite good in conversing in english. i still have to translate what they have said in tagalog. the next thing that happen really got into my nerves. one of the kitchen crew went to our table and complain (in a very loud voice and with gestures na sobrang angas) that he did what we have ordered. so i told him, it's not really a big deal and maybe they just had a misunderstanding and to just give him the bun. and then the waiter told me that they already gave us the special favor of customizing my salad (so that my friend could also have some of it). i was really pissed off because i asked them if it's okay not to include the dried pusit in my salad and they said yes. and what the heck, it is really alright to request to have your food customized. other restos are alright with it because it is a kind of respect to your customers. in the end they gave my friend the bun... but they let him wait for almost 30 minutes... my indian friends were both patient, while me and my other friend was not. i mean, put yourself in my shoes... it's just a bun. something they don't need to cook. all they have to do is just to place it in a plate and bring it in our table. my friend is not even asking to have it redone. he's just asking for the bun. but the kitchen crew is making a big deal about it, like i want chicken in a beef casserole. what else? they've got wooden tables with bed mites (surot) in it. i have to put tissue on the edge of the table because i can't help resting my arms on the edge... i've got several bites on my arms... just last night (february 12, 2009), my two indian friends and another friend of mine went to this F*#%^!

the next thing that happen really got into my nerves. one of the kitchen crew went to our table and complain (in a very loud voice and with gestures na sobrang angas) that he did what we have ordered. so i told him, it’s not really a big deal and maybe they just had a misunderstanding and to just give him the bun. and then the waiter told me that they already gave us the special favor of customizing my salad (so that my friend could also have some of it). i was really pissed off because i asked them if it’s okay not to include the dried pusit in my salad and they said yes. and what the heck, it is really alright to request to have your food customized. other restos are alright with it because it is a kind of respect to your customers.
