Wonder how SINGLE's celebrate Valentine's Day. Well I'll tell you how. Every year, me and my cousins go out on a valentine's day, whether it was a dinner, shopping or partying. Since we don't have a valentine's date, 'DATE-DATE', we prefer going out together. Last December, my cousin just turned 18, and to baptized her, it was her which we asked to where we should go this valentine's day, so since she loves drinking, we know exactly where she want to go, and our instincts were right. She wants to go in a BAR. We all agreed with what she just suggested since it's the place where it will not be full of lovers. Months passed and February came, we thought everything was already settled yet on the last minute, a friend of my older cousin suggested the 'TX' bar(not its real name), we checked it on the internet, and the ads were good, and the food was scrumptious. But due to midterm examinations, my cousin had to pass on the V'day. We just go on it anyway...
"An X Dinner at TX BAR"
So there, we went to the TX bar, the venue was nice, and the acoustic performers were doing great. We arrived early (as far as I remember), plus we were hungry. The venue wasn't crowded, like I can count on my beautiful fingers(haha!) as to how many people were there to eat. The flower petals, flower and candle centerpiece were cute. And we enjoy staying there for a while. Not until we ordered our food, We ordered pasta's, rice and some dish.
See , we were still smiling!!! My cousin ordered first and after two hours her food was served and right after a few hours our food was also being served.Almost 3 and a half hours of waiting for our food. Can you imagine how starved and bored we were during that time.
See the food on the right side, that’s the rice that we had waited for that long. We just teased each other that maybe they want to shape it that way perfectly. So, they serve the food that late. We were soo annoyed. Oh! Before I forgot we also ordered a bottomless iced tea, to which they didn't care of refilling every now and then, even though it’s empty. Plus when they refill that they intentionally pour it in my cousins bag, it got wet of course, which the waiter didn't apologize for. Argh!
This was the receipt of that bar. See how they compute it manually, and how it was written. That we didn't let pass. Our anger started to burst. I blur the name of the BAR using adobe photoshop (just to be safe). Anyway, I've seen something wrong in this receipt: 1. As what I've mention it was not a normal receipt. Like the printed ones' (look! it was like a receipt of a supply, like hammer, nails paint & stuff) right?!
2. The address written on it was not their address, but the address of their main branch (I smell something fishy). And lastly.
3. See how blank it was. Some required fields wasn't fill-in by the store cashier or to whoever duty it was.
We decided to call the manager, as to discussed what happened so they will know what's going on with their bar, we told him that they have a poor service. He asked why, we said that they had late food service, that there were no waiters roam around just to fill-in the drinks, there were no at least nuts, chips in their tables just for us(customers) could eat while waiting for the food to be served and that their waiter didn't apologize when she intentionally pour her bag with iced tea. In my shocked the manager didn't apologize at first and just said that we just waited that long because they had customers on the left side of the bar. Which made us feel that we were their less priority. Then my cousin asked him "as a manager what will you do with this incident?" There, I think he noticed that he needs to say sorry. He just say "sorry" and walked out" even add on to our receipt a service charge. TOO BAD!!! We immediately go out of that bar after we had paid everything. We then promise to ourselves that we will not go back in that BAR again. LIKE NEVER! NEVER!

'GLADLY, "ELBOW ROOM" BAR WAS THERE TO SAVE OUR DAY!!!'
After the annoying dinner at an annoying bar. We transfer to another bar just to relax ourselves from what had happened. And yes! We enjoyed it like bigtime. We just realized that If only we figured out that this bar doesn't strictly require customers to be on their guestlist, we will not waste our time with the bar that we had gone to. But anyway, Elbow Room Bar was a huge bar, like it can accommodate at least 300 people I think. It has billiard table on both sides (for those who want to play billiards) and in the center was where the band sings and where the party goes. They have also rooms for the v.i.p, which was good if you don't want to hear the loud band and if you don't want to smell the smoke of other customers. What I like about this bar was they served the food fast, the waiters were everywhere to assist you, and the band was not boring. It was totally the opposite of the TX BAR.
Me, and my cousins!!!
Drinking Time!!!
WE ARE SOO LUCKY TO HAVE EACH OTHER!!! =)
