You should note that I too have that snippet of info in my Gossip/News sidebar on this blog, as I noticed last week the same sign in the window that you pointed out.Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05721723151185687327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-47113290110224485852009-10-23T09:37:08.514+11:002009-10-23T09:37:08.514+11:00On the subject of Darjohs, but off the subject of ...On the subject of Darjohs, but off the subject of agro, I discovered that they are starting to do yum cha, as from this Sunday 25th. Oct. I saw a notice on their window, and there was also a small notice in the Merc.<br />Whether or not they continue with this will depend on support from the public, so if you want more than one yum cha outlet in Hobart, support them!Joynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-77058233936839585422009-10-20T07:48:11.992+11:002009-10-20T07:48:11.992+11:00That anon sounds like a bully.

Can't recommend it highly enough is the word.<br />Looks like we'll have to go and check it out.<br />Sounds like it's off to a good start at the New Sydney.<br />Please pass this on for us.<br />Sorry I know this is off topic.Christinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-62117427912047919212009-10-18T14:25:00.125+11:002009-10-18T14:25:00.125+11:00Stephen,I totally agree with the 3 sides to every ...Stephen,I totally agree with the 3 sides to every story. I tell my children this all the time.<br />There's your side, their side, and what really happened.<br />A wise person once told me too that "you catch more flies with honey, than with vinegar".<br />I adopt that approach if I have a complaint and most times all turns out well.<br />There is a certain way, I feel, that if we go about things, all parties come away happy.<br />I also try never to react in anger.<br />harder than it sounds sometimes, but a cooling off period is sometimes required.<br />Having said all that, I have been known to take back delivered pizzas and toss them on the counter, demand my money back, informing the staff how over it I was, however I did make sure this was done quietly and as calmly as possible so as not to alarm other patrons.As this was the fifth time they'd stuffed an order I felt totally justified. I think even the staff were sick of it as no attempt to rectify the situation was made at all.<br />I'd like to add that this wasn't one of the gaggle of pre fab pizza places, of which I refuse to frequent, but our local pizzeria, that once was so wonderful but died a sad, sad death.<br />So in conclusion, complain if you feel it's justified, there are just better ways than others of dealing with it.Christinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-12859965693977474812009-10-18T09:54:50.224+11:002009-10-18T09:54:50.224+11:00I think in this particular instance Stephen there ...I think in this particular instance Stephen there might well be even more sides to the story, as the waitstaff will also have a different tale to tell, and separate to Nelson's, the Anon angry customer's, and the restaurant patrons present on the night!<br />Thanks for your comment too btw - we are lucky to have a more legal perspective added to the mix here, particularly on this post.Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05721723151185687327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-23872036755612656012009-10-18T09:08:37.555+11:002009-10-18T09:08:37.555+11:00Rita in my experience there are three sides to eve...Rita in my experience there are three sides to every story, not just two.
