I haven't gone to the restuarant before, but I don't have a good impression of it, now that I just bought their mooncake.

Was initially attracted by the Chef's man-sized-poster that the sales outlet have. It was one of the chef who went on TV program which had Sam Leong. Had a pretty good feeling initially.

But the good feeling I had about it got tanished, not that their mooncake taste awful, since I am only going for their traditional type and that can't go too wrong. But I am not happy with their service. I was at Raffles Xchange on Friday during lunch and they were offering a 30% discount on cash-and-carry. Already intended to buy the mixed nuts for my mum, partly for the mid-aug praying to the ancestors. But I was hoping I could have a mix-&-match with 2 plain ones, since not the whole family eat mixed nuts. I was told that I will be charged at the max price of $50 before disc (after disc will be $35) as I am getting a mix, although the mixed nuts and the plain ones are selling at lower price per box of 4 each. I wanted to tell the person that I should be charged at the highest price of my choice (mixed nut) and not at the highest choice of their options. I know I don't have much say in this, but the last thing I want is a black face staff telling me "it is already very cheap after the 30% discount, you go elsewhere you can't get it at such price". She is just short of telling me, 'if you don't want, then don't buy lah'.

Note: the staff is not a student-age nor a Chinese-national, so I am presuming she is a perm staff of the restaurant.

Too lazy to rethink my options of which other brands/hotels to get my mixed nuts from, I just say ok. The crowd behind me was so packed and noisy that I forgot to double check that I am getting the right mooncakes: when I got home, I saw 2 mooncakes with "wu" and 2 mooncakes with "dan" characters. Double disappointed. Am I getting the egg yolk which is more expensive?? I didn't ask for that!!!

Now, I just hope that my mum don't come and tell me that the mixed nuts taste awful. Else, I am not going to trust one of those gone-on-TV chef again.
