An ultra long dinner at cafe Metro, Hotel Indigo BKK

I believe this meal has been our longest dinner that we can get hungry again after each course.  We just ordered one appetizer and one main.  It took them more than 2 hours to serve the main.  So it took us 2.5 hours to finish the meal.  Food-wise, it isn't too bad.  However, their service is way under a 3 star hotel standard.  Most of all, their sofa and couch gave us a hard time - too uneven and uncomfortable.

2.5 hours for these 3 dishes is not worth it.
Hope the price is good though.

BTW, the waiter came to recommend their steak and fish as it's 50% off. So we took his recommendation. Later on, when the bill came, it's not on any discount. So we asked the captain to check with the waiter. So the waiter confirmed it. Ain't it amazing that the waiter knows more than the captain and can make a decision.

It is good that you looked at the bill first.
Sometime they may act dumb till you catch them.

BTW, I just made a stupid tips twice since I did not see they charged 20% already for party of so I tipped again another 14%. Till I went home and think how come bill $200 and and I am not full then I noticed.
As in Chinese or J Restaurant it is not common they include tips unless for party over 10 that is why I overlooked.

In some European places, they included tipping regardless of the no. of guests.
