REstaurants never to try
-
i disagree with u. Been there twice during full house and empty house. Both service are gd except its very hard to catch waiter attention coz lack of staff. Plus they are having one for one main course promo on weekday which is very value for money. The food are nice alos, esp my pork ribs. Variety screw up? i would say the variety of food choices are as normal as most restaurants maOriginally posted by crimson soldier:spageddies @centerstage, marina square
screwed up food in terms of quality and variety
all my friends agree. -
yup. SURF AND TURF is a BIG NONO! i went there once, and promised myself NEVER to go there again. Plastic red cups...super duper small portion of food, (at least half of Fish and Co. ), but DOUBLE the price.Originally posted by sailor83:As stated, list the restaurants that u should nvr go unless u r a BIG carrot head waiting to be chopped
Ill start: Surf and Turf at Suntec. Serves the most explensive and no-value-for-money meals u can find. $30 for a small portion of steak n crayfish. no standard somemore. No wonder they can employ so many part timers to work there
Further, did not taste as good.
Oh yah...Manhattan Fish Market is good!
I recommend you all try it. its slightly more portion than fish and co., better service than fish and co. and food taste better too and cheaper (by about 20%!) -
FI is right. Also avoid thai express at bugis...been there once and vowed not to patronise again.Originally posted by FireIce:avoid thai express @ bishan, citylink
Warm place, lousy furniture, super small portion of food, but high price. And food is not impressive and taste ordinary.
-
For the thai express at bugis not that bad. the beef noodles is splendid. however, maybe you are right to say that the place is warm due to the open concept.
i highly dont recommend vienthai!!!! sucky restuarant. with bad food and expensive pricing.... -
i think it would be better to create a different threadOriginally posted by index81:Any place recommended for sandwich? Restaurant or temp store i dont mind as long as its good.

actually I didn't elaborate. the variety of beverages was super limited. even less than that of a typical coffeeshop lah.Originally posted by pierre^^:i disagree with u.

Avoid the Balcony at Heeren.
Went with several of my ex-classmates after our ROM for a dinner. As the set dinner looked rather value for money $19.90+++ (either fish/chicken) with dessert and coffee/tea, we proceeded to place our orders for nine people.
The waitress then clarified that they have ran out of cakes as desserts and it would be a soft drink in lieu. A piece of cake there costs at least $5 and they actually wanted to change it a soft drink which costs a few cents. It was only seven plus and they sold out their cakes with no replenishment..Ridiculous..Subsequently, thought they might use some discretion, we requested to change our 'soft-drinks desserts' to a jug of vodka, but was turned down flatly. Fed up, refused to order the set dinners (obviously short-changed) but ordered a main course and a jug of vodka ribena. One jug costs $34+++ but was not enough for 9 people and ordered two. There were so many restrictions on the choice of alcohol, that we cannot order the cocktail and so on in a jug. Vodka ribena actually tasted like bitter blackcurrant cough syrup. When we complained to the waitress (obviously an overworked, under-paid temp), she gave us a dirty look and showed that she can't do anything. The main course portions were miserly and served with some bitter-tasting raw vegetation. Ended up spending $200 plus, half-fed and full of frustration. They gave a $15/- voucher, hoping that I am another big-head carrot but tore it up and threw it into one of the dirty plates. They got my message.
This place disappoints me a lot..thought it would deliver some standards after being recommended by Bryan Wong and Patricia Mok in their show. The ambience is ok but the food and inflexibility of the staff really sucks. Go there at your own risk. Restaurants who take their customers for granted would utimately be the loser. Word-of-mouth power rules. -
I have officially sacked the Fish and Co at Wheelock place.
The service was terrible.
The waitress/waiters simply crowded the bar area and watched TV or chit chatted. There was zero service provided. No re-filling of water, no one alert to take orders, they twice screwed up my orders and even pretended to act blur about it when i questioned them. Patrons sitting near me went as far as refusing to pay the 10% service charge, citing extremely poor attitude of the waiters, and called for the manager to express their disgust.
The food may be decent, but i was totally put off by the poor...no LACK of service. -

If the manhatten fish market improve their logistics problems, they could very well do better than Fish and Co. Service there was great.Originally posted by FireIce:i tink the glass house one is the best outlet........friendly and quick service...
