| - For the first time in a review, I'm not sure where to begin.
Walking into the restaurant was surprising. It was spacious, clean, classy, and obviously Asian-ran.
My mom had a company dinner and they rented the second floor for the occasion.
The space is somewhat cramped for 40 people.
The food came quickly and I was sooo excited to try the sushi.
Food:
1. The sushi was so overhyped. They use a lot of rice and you can barely taste the fish. It was like biting into riceball mixed in with slivers of veggies and fishie.
2. The chicken skewers I loved. The peanut satay sauce was perfect.
3. The curry was amazing too. Although their roti was super oily.
4. The green beans were good! It is an oily dish but acceptable.
5. The dim sum was surprisingly average for the amount we paid. If you're looking for dimsum... Go elsewhere.
6. Other dishes that I can't remember due to insignificance.
~ The food, overall, was either average that met expectations or fell sorely below.
The kicker honestly was the employee. My mom was showing her friends the new $10 bill for Canada's 150th and this middle-aged male waiter was like, "Can I see?"
THEN HE HELD ONTO IT.
I grabbed the other end cause noooo way was this happening. We already tipped you?!
Then he has the audacity to ask my mom, "how about I keep this one?" And although we were all laughing, we knew he was being serious.
When my mom's like: haha noooo.
Him: wow, "yut jeung do mhh bey?" Which literally means, really you won't even give up one?
Thank god these were her close friends and not anybody else from the company around.
Awks. Manage your staff better please. The food isn't horrible and I do love the setting.
