lamb shrank


It's e last second day of e yr 2010. Time really flies.
Went dinner at patio alexandar last night. Had bought 2 vouchers online through deal.com. Somehow felt cheated due to e unclear written sentence on e voucher. Is a voucher of $20 @$14. It's written '30% off main course, pasta, desserts and beer for lunch/dinner'. I had misunderstood it. Guess they should have wrote it as '30% off main course/pasta/desserts/beer for lunch/dinner'. The waiter told us that e voucher entitle us to $40 worth of food, so we could choose from either categories. We could top up if e amount exceed. So we ordered 2 main courses, one stirlon steak & one lamb shrank. In this case, we would have to top up $8. However, they calculate e bill in a 'smart' way. They deducted $40 nett after e whole bill with gst & service charge instead of charging e gst & service charge on e top up amount $8 only. So end up, we top up $16.50 instead of $9.36 -_-" This is not e main issue. Firstly, their service wasn't that good. We made an reservation in e afternoon but they didn't reserve e seats for us. Secondly, e food was slightly over price. This suppose to be a chill out place too, but e ambient is only average. It doesn't have this chilling ambient =p When they served e stirlon steak, my eyes were wide opened & stunned. The piece of e steak was really damn small. The price was almost double e lamb shrank and yet e serving portion of e lamb shrank was bigger. -_-" But must admit e lamb shrank taste much more better than e steak although e sauce is slightly too sour. Will never dine there again. Guess I can get better steak at Jack's place and is even cheaper =p
