Two people decided to have something cold on a freezy night. Jap food came to mind first but since it’s like queuing for food in North Korea, we decided to bugger off elsewhere.Then La Villa TST appeared like a dream. With all those seafood lining up beautifully, gazing and smiling at us. A voice echoed in my head; ‘eat me if you dare!’. Ok, ‘let’s get slouched!’ and we went for it.To start off, everything was fine. Seating was comfy with a highway view, police bike chasing some Thelma and Loui
Then La Villa TST appeared like a dream. With all those seafood lining up beautifully, gazing and smiling at us. A voice echoed in my head; ‘eat me if you dare!’. Ok, ‘let’s get slouched!’ and we went for it.
To start off, everything was fine. Seating was comfy with a highway view, police bike chasing some Thelma and Louise smuggler outside really adds up.
We ordered our drinks, the fake electrical humpty dumpty like blue candle stand on the table was working it’s magic just fine. Next table was a bit loud but it’s ok, I understand we are not sitting in a cave in New Zealand. Everything was just like a normal dinner should be.
Food was very good, like a normal restaurant. Some food was so good I even asked about the origin. A young guy, full of energy was busy with his tableware setting, bill handling he totally forgotten about my question. It’s ok, maybe no one knows the answer and he is still asking around.
Another young guy, nicely asked if I wanted some more bread. With that quality of bread, I struggled for a moment but I was hope for the best. So I said yes. Maybe it’s the ingredients, maybe mama’s recipe didn’t work out this time, maybe it’s poor just because it doesn’t cost a dime. Highly recommend they do some comparison with their next door neighbours. You don’t normally complaint about bread right? No, I never but I do now. The bread simply tasted crap and dry and dull.
After the half time beak, the game is starting to get excited here. I mentioned about ordering a drink to start off with right? My glass was just simply disappeared without asking for a refill. So I thought, ok, I’ll go with the flow. Maybe something wonderful will happen to me. I was obviously thinking too much. I like the way they change my plate 3 to 4 times but totally ignored that very obvious piece of plastic wrap (from tissue from starter) for the whole meal! Where is the focus man! I think the stationing system has fail a 100% for this instance.
At the end, we asked for the bill. Simple THANK YOU and BYE-BYE was missing totally from the person who gave me the bill, no ‘thank you’ from the floor staffs either as we walked out. The staff who welcomed us in saw us walked out without saying a word. I guess the cold wind freeze his balls up or something!
I can proudly say that my local Tea House do much better than this one. Good food, bad service, it’s still a miss. A miss is as good as a mile. Good luck La Villa!
