I have been to Bar Trigona several times before, sometimes with friends but often alone. For me, it was always a safe place to enjoy a drink quietly without needing to socialize. I was always treated kindly, especially by Khairil Anwar, who made me feel welcome and never made me feel out of place for coming alone.
Tonight was very different. I arrived around 9:40pm and was told it was fully booked, even though many tables were empty. I was seated at the back but told I had to leave by 10pm. When I asked if I could move to the bar after that, I was told the bar was also “fully booked.” My food arrived late, and just after I finished eating at 10:51pm, I was asked to move again because the table was “reserved at 11pm.” By then, I had lost any appetite to stay.
As I walked out, there were still plenty of empty tables. Sadly, it seems like the ladies on staff didn’t extend the same warmth and consideration that I had experienced in the past — almost as if one woman doesn’t treat another woman well. I left feeling unwelcome, rushed out, and honestly, quite hurt.
