Dear Pasteako Team,I am writing to formally express my disappointment regarding an experience my wife and I had at your restaurant on 31 July during our lunch visit. While we were initially impressed by the ambiance and service, an unexpected charge on our bill left us feeling misled and dissatisfied.Before placing our food order, we were offered a choice between still or sparkling water by your staff. At no point were we informed that still water would incur a charge of $38 per person, totaling $76 for the two of us. In Hong Kong, it is customary for restaurants to provide complimentary drinking water, and we had no reason to assume otherwise, especially for still water, which is typically considered a basic courtesy.It was only upon receiving the bill (Order #37842) that we discovered this charge labeled as “unlimited refill water.” We believe this practice lacks transparency and borders on deceptive, particularly when no verbal or written notice was given beforehand.Following this, we and spoke with a member of your staff regarding the issue. During the call, we were assured that a refund would be processed.We are still waiting for the refund.We hope you will take this feedback seriously and consider implementing clearer communication regarding any non-standard charges. A simple mention by staff would go a long way in maintaining trust and customer satisfaction.We would appreciate a prompt response regarding this matter and confirmation of the refund as promised.I have spoken to your staff and left my name and contact number. Please check Order #37842 and inform me if refund has been made.Thank you!…Read More

Still water 好多西餐廳都要收錢 你要唔收錢 個隻叫tap water

Whenever a restaurant asks still or sparkling water? You answer tap if you don’t want to pay. Still or sparkling always incurs a charge and it’s not “basic” water. Be glad it’s not $80 up for a bottle of water as with most other restaurants.
