| - I have this love hate relationship with this place. If you are from Hong Kong, you may know what I mean. It is kind of western food that is cater to people from Hong Kong without the broth made from scratch, lower quality ingredients and pretending to be a steakhouse sort of restaurant. I like to come becausr my parents wants to eat something that feels like western food but do not want to spend too much money.
The Christmas menu seems promising with lobster bisque, salmon salad, 8 oz striploin and cheesecake. I could tell the lobster bisque was made from scratch since there were pieces of lobster shells still in my soup. What?!!! I was glad that I was able to pick them out, but what if you can't. Sigh~ When I requested the striploin to be cooked medium rare, the waitress was telling me there's no such thing. I was like, "Huh, are you sure?" Then, she gave me a blank stare and said, "ok."
The salad was just like what you have store bought from supermarket. The marsh pototoes was really tasty and creamy and the striploin was cooked to medium rare perfection. The cheesecake was an after-thought as it was really bland with not much flavour.
When I paid, I was expecting them more tip to return the differnece and I would pay them the tip. But the difference of my payment and bill was nowhere to be found. When I ask for the change, they just gave me the bill. At first, I thought it was Christmas, I was going to tip them more. But if they wanted to keep the change, be my guest.
I was totally dissatisfied with the customer service provided even though the main dish was quite good.
Hopefully, none of my friends or family want to come this place any time soon.
