Full/Half is a great place for casual afternoon tea with a friend or two and I absolutely love their 2-people (+ 1-2 toddlers) floor to ceiling window booth seats overlooking the quieter part of TST. Their waffles and quesedillas are tasty and most importantly, there is usually no need to wait for a table in the afternoon. The location is great too.However, dinner was a separate matter.

However, dinner was a separate matter.
With a reservation for 8:30 pm, we arrived on time but got seated at a regular table at 8:50 pm despite the waitstaff's earlier reassurance (on the phone when making the booking and at the door upon our arrival) that we'll get a booth table. Anyhow, since we were hungry, we didn't argue as we've already waited for 20 minutes.
I ordered the set dinner and my husband ordered their la carte seafood risotto and tomoto soup with prawns. Here's what we had:
Set dinner:
Waldorf salad with Fuji apple and walnut -- it was the tiniest salad I've seen. But since it's from the set, I guess it's part of a larger meal.
Tomoto cream soup -- the soup was ok.
Iberico Pork -- The presentation was ok, the pork was ok, but the blueberry sauce had no taste and the baked potatoes, all 3-4 pieces of then, were raw. There was a stick of thyme poked into one of the potatoes pieces, and I wish they would sort out how to properly cook a potato before they tend to the fancy artsy stuff.
Vegetable tomato soup with prawns -- The presentation was great, the soup was ok, the prawn are also ok. The croutons made it great and it can be a light lunch meal on its own for light eaters.Seafood risotto -- a major disappointment as my husband loves risotto. First, it was not cooked properly. It was dry and crunchy. It looks and taste more like ketchup fried rice than the creamy tomatoey risotto that we love. A big no no for them to serve this one a hot cast iron pan. NOT everything goes well on a burning hot iron pan, not risotto ever!
題外話/補充資料：
We spent $580 on dinner for two and we think we could have spent this money more deliciously somewhere else. We were also unhappy that the waitstaff lied to us about waiting time and availability of the window booth table. We were disappointed in the the food was not properly cooked.
