We chose the restaurant to start celebrating a birthday, and expected to have nice breakfast at this charming restaurant. Its lobby reminds of colonial times, and the terrace restaurant provides a simple, but nice atmosphere. Although most tables were taken, after a short wait we were offered a table. ||However, service turned out to something somewhat difficult. to begin with, ordering 2 classic cappuccino was a challenging task. We were given what seemed to be 2 large cups of milk and coffee, so we kindly requested to change them for classic Italian recipes.||The fruit platter was prepared in a simple way. That was quite ordinary, with pineapple, watermelon and melon. However, some typical local fruits would have made this platter more interesting. ||After a long wait we were informed that the kitchen had no salmon and could not prepare scrambled eggs. The order then was replaced by Eggs Benedict.||The wait was again long and I requested a second Italian capuccino, which was not served.||The reaction of servers, when asked about our orders, was a little disappointing. They excused themselves by saying “I did not know about that”. ||We ended up being the last ones to leave the breakfast premises, but there was still one last issue to be solved: the bill. Instead of being charged by Eggs Benedict, we were requested to pay for scrambled eggs. The waitress explained that the prices were the same, but after I requested her to double-check them an adjustment was made to the bill.||In the end, I’m not sure the reason why they charged us a service tax but, in any case, I’m not convinced it would be worthwhile returning, mainly if the reason would be the celebration of an important friend’s date.
