We picked out Goodday cafe from the app for its 1:1 meal promotion. On this basis we trekked across town to look for it. However, once seated we enquired about the menu options and were told that the restaurant *requires* you to make an advance booking or will not honor the promotion. It was mid afternoon and only 1 table out of 6 was occupied. Perhaps i should have dug in to the fine print, but this was the first time i have heard this amongst about 20 restaurants we have been to with the a
Anyway the manager instead conceded to allow us 1:1 coffees...which frankly seems worse as an outright bait-and-switch. If you are a restaurant owner and going to run a promotion you want the result to be a customer that comes again, not a customer that vows not to come again. A failed promotion leaves them worse off then when they started.
Anyway we stayed for lunch, having made the trip. The menu is simple cafe selection; burgers, pastas, eggs & western breakfasts. The burgers are offered with peanut butter topping; nobody at our table felt like exploring this one. The cheeseburger was adequate burger+bun+lettuce+tomatoes, served with chunky fries (though the order was for the salad not the fries) on a piece of slate. OK, but a bit short of expectations for HK$90.
Things to note:
-if you want to wash your hands, the bathrooms are outside the restaurant, down the street, across 2 separate traffic lights, in a public building. It took 10 minutes get there and back.
-No credit cards. Cash only. of course.
