Pacific Oriental

i went last friday 18 april with some mates for adrink to the new pacific what a great cocktail bar professional and friendly bartenders, cocktail are wonderful. we had a few snack food is wonderful and service is great and spotless the waiting staff is very helpful and great knowledge and professionalism. I reported that to one of the manager who was at the reception when i left. The only i would like to add i have been served as well by a manager when i asked him advice about wine or cocktail he was not able to answer and struggled and started to panic. Which is unacceptable as manager you should have to be better than your staff if you are not able to handle and advice customer you go back to waiter or commis position but you do not work in management position.

Four of us lunched there last week in the smart bit. Long story short: Enormous, impressive place with armies of really nice staff. Food fine, but rather lacks the punch needed for Asian cuisine. People, square feet and interior design need paying for, so it costs double what it should. Think £15 for (good) cheese for one, and not many wines below £40 (charming Ecuadorian somellier).
