Cova in Pacific Place has always been one of my faves, but today I came to the TST branch to grab lunch with a friend who works in TST.

How can the same Cova but different branches be so utterly different? First, we had reservations, but the waiter brought me to a table that was an inch away from the utensils cabinet, while there were a bunch of other better tables.

Then came the menu, and it was all set lunch's. Since i thought i'd eat less by avoiding that all you can eat salad bar, I asked the waitress if there was an a- la - carte menu. For some odd reasons, the waitress (who by the way, has red and frizzed cheap hair) points out that if i do order a la carte, it would be a lot cheaper. Then she pointed out all the cheapest things on the menu and told me their prices. Earth to waitress, firstly, people that eat at Cova can care less about a fifty dollar price difference, second, a la carte is always more expensive then set deals, alright.

Then came the food, the tomato soup was alright, nothing special. Then came my tuna steak, which was way over cooked, tough and chewy. The tangy sauce and side salad made up for the poorly cooked tuna.

It seems that there are tons of bad reviews on this Cova branch already, perhaps the management should really take in the criticism and improve on it.
