Yeah bla bla bla, you probably wouldn't give a shit about these types of things do you? Not until when you really need it.
Scenario :
Today, Pokekitteh and his family went to Midvalley to buy new clothes for pokekitteh , its a total mental torture for pokekitteh cause pokekitteh dislike making choices and every shop pokekitteh went into has so many choices , hence pokekitteh is confused and wants all of it to end a.s.a.p.
Finally, pokekitteh finish shopping his clothes and before going back, pokekitteh and family decided to have their dinner. Pokekitteh's mother chooses a shop call LITTLE TAIWAN at the highest floor besides Carl's JR and McDonald, opposite GS.Cinema. Actually pokekitteh does not want to eat that shop cause pokekitteh has an appetite for Carl's JR humongous burgers.
So, pokekitteh and family went in LITTLE TAIWAN and order their food and drinks, LITTLE TAIWAN is jampacked with people at that time. Drinks were served in a short while, and we chat over the drinks, so, whilst we chat, the clock is ticking, and pokekitteh's brother is getting hungrier and angrier by the second, and the waiter apparently from Myanmar and doesn't know chinese, and keep ignoring us while looking around idly.
Then finally, food is served, but it wasn't to us, but to a couple besides us which came in later than us. This is when pokekitteh's brother had a breakdown and start beckoning to the waitress and scold her, a lame excuse of machine breakdown was given. Pokekitteh's brother then had enough of this and decide to pay the drinks and go to other shop for dinner, so the bill came out, but there's a service charge for the non-service they given us, and again, temper flared, and here, pokekitteh had to LOL at the excuse they given for the service charge, apparently, we are charged rm 1.60 for making the drinks.
Of course, the manager came out and was very... very... apologetic and offer voucher, but of course was turned down, and that's that, pokekitteh hereby from that time on wards, LITTLE TAIWAN was entered into pokekitteh's shitlist of restaurant.
oh and the Myanmar waitress who apparently don't know chinese? He's a china dude with a china accent, well well.
Moral of the lesson :
1) Never ever go into LITTLE TAIWAN
2) A hungry man is an angry man
