Shoes & Bags Sale @ SMX

We did just that and here's what we saw...

Cooling Off at Gong Cha, SM MOA

After a Sunday lunch at Tajimaya (one of our favorites), we walked around the SM MOA complex. Due to the scorching heat, we were soon thirsty. Milk tea seemed the best way to beat the heat. We already tried Chatime so we were left with Gong Cha to try out.

 Bright and inviting, this was a good start. We had to wait for a few minutes because of the long line. Let's see if the drinks were worth it. 

Menu Board

Just like in other tea places, their drink selection was posted on a menu board. With lots of drink to choose from, we settled with our go-to flavors of Taro & Caramel Milk Teas.

The first visit was last March and all I can say is they had lots to improve on.

• Their rule on food spoilage (3pcs of lamb per person, etc) was really a big turn off. It's a buffet for crying out loud! People will get as much as they want. I believe your policy of charging extra for leftovers & sharing is enough to cover that issue. Why the need for this confrontational demeanor?

• The servers kept talking amongst themselves. And their topic is the customers (Table number this was complaining, etc). That's annoying & totally rude. We eat to relax & enjoy each other's company, not hear your complaints about your patrons! Tsk tsk. Sorely in need of staff training.
