Dazzling Café

It seems to be a popular place. As we walked in the hostess explained to us that we’re given 90 minutes for dining before seating.
Our waitress asked politely if a menu introduction will be needed. This is important to first time customers as well as regular patrons because it simply goes to show the quality of staff training. I’m always all ears to hear what the service staff has to say about the menu.
After a brief explanation she recommended the daily dessert specials, saying they are in limited supply. Dazzling Café is most famous for Honey Toast – one big square of toast that’s hollow inside and filled with fruits, honey, chocolate sauce and etc.
Since we weren’t hungry and just needed a place to sit down and chat over coffee we went with her recommendation and ordered Chocolate Puff and Strawberry Cake. They did look good. As I took the first bite it’s clear to me that these desserts come from a central kitchen / factory. This is what I called Dessert without a Soul. It’s decent but it’s not anything you would write home about.
The service is pleasant and courteous. Obviously the waiters and waitresses understand the concept of Dazzling Café caters to women between the age of 25 and 40 who want a glimpse of the high life.
這肯定是生意很好的餐廳，都還沒入座，門口帶位的服務生清楚地解適用餐時間只有90分鐘。女服務生很有禮貌地問是否需要介紹菜單，我認為這很重要，因為就知道服務人員的訓練品質。所以無論是否熟悉菜單，我總是喜歡聽聽服務人員會怎麼說。簡單的解釋之後，她推薦每日的限量甜點，不過這家餐廳著名的甜點是蜜糖土司，未切片的土司方塊挖空之後，以水果、蜂蜜、巧克力醬等等點綴。
我們也不餓，只是要找個地方坐下，喝杯咖啡聊聊天，於是點了巧克力泡芙和草莓蛋糕。賣相很好的每日限量甜點，吃一口就猜到這大概是中央廚房或烘培工廠的成品。我稱之為沒有靈魂的甜點，不難吃，但也沒啥特別的。
值得一提的是服務親切有禮貌，很明顯的服務人員都了解這家餐廳的定位，鎖定25到40歲的女人，嚮往貴婦般的生活。
