Open Letter to Mr "B" from HungryEpicurean.com
Dear B,
It has come to my attention that you had visited a certain
restaurant today for their Sunday Champagne Brunch in the Joo Chiat
vicinity today with 3 dining companions. The brunch would have cost
S$68++ per person. You had informed the restaurant that you were a
food blogger and assumed that by telling them so, the bill for all
4 of you would be waived.
This was not to be the case, as highlighted to you by the
management. Further, I understand that upon being informed by the
staff that out of goodwill, the restaurant would waive the costs of
the meal for your partner and yourself. However, the costs of the
two other diners had still to be borne by your dining companions.
Upon hearing so, I put it to you that you threw your credit card at
the cashier, while you glared at the staff who handled your bill.
This was quoted from the operations manager of the restaurant and
thus may be skewed.
The management of the restaurant in question was, in my opinion,
more than kind enough to sign off the bill of both yourself and
your 1 dining partner as goodwill.
Let it be known that most of us food bloggers (yours truly
included) simply cannot condone your acts today.
Dated 22nd August 2010
