Hahaha..YES, FINALLY!!! I am suppose to blog about this LAST WEEK. This post is actually ONE WEEK late. Finally, I manage to steal a little time to blog about it.
It was a Public Holiday last Tuesday, so I decided "free" myself for 3 hours from "family time" to meet up with my girlfriends, need to connect back my social network in real life not just in facebook; somehow I feel I am losing more and more friends as I aged (especially while in the process of "family building - a.k.a. pregnancy, taking care of babies). ** It is so ME! I am pulling away from the TOPIC again. :P
As I was saying, I met up with my girlfriend who is now a preggie. She looks gorgeous!! The little boy inside her is making her the happiest and the most beautiful pregnant woman in this world (Well, I believe at least to me, to her husband, to her family and friends).
I had a great time catching up with her, sadly we didn't manage to talk about "EVERYTHING" in such a short time. We met up at about 3 plus in the afternoon, and left at about 6pm. Well, when two mums gather, the topic of "babies" is like a MUST. She mentioned to me about her sister-in-law's daughter, and it hits me that Chloe is actually acting like what she described - screaming & crying - at this age (24 months). However, I think she is getting better. I don't hear so much of screaming from her anymore - I guess the "Notti Corner" is working or "Mama's Power" is working. Perhaps that the reason for losing the intimacy, I had somehow created fear to her. :P Well, I am try to balance it out.
Let's come back to the Tea at Ritz Carlton :-
Price : Reasonable RM 60++/pax ( I am not sure on the actual price :P, my share is RM 60)
Ambient : HOT! WARM! STUFFY! For a 5/6 Star Hotel, I think Air Flow is something really important. How can they neglected it? Their setting of the expensive furnitures was also little uncomfortable. We were seated right in front of the elevator. Gosh! FIVE STAR!
Tea : English Style 3-tier Tea Set : Scones, Sandwich, Quiche, Canape, Tarts, Cakes - Selection is good and the portion is good for 3 - 4 pax. The Tea Selection is crazy. I think there are about 50 different types - I had Earl Grey and My friend had Rose Tea.
Parking : I want to complain on the Parking. Yes, Ritz Carlton can collect RM20 for parking but they must make sure the elevator is WORKING. My pregnant friend paid RM20.00 and was told to park at LEVEL B2. Okay - that's fine - B1 is usually reserved for VIPS. But the elevator was out of order and she had to walk up 2 floors to reach the lounge. *sigh* This is what we call FIVE STAR? Somemore No Receipt!!!
Service : GOOD! They are polite and nice. As I walked into the main lobby, everyone greeted me. The reception also walked out of the counter and greeted me. She even brought me to the lounge herself. This is the REAL FIVE STAR Service.
The Overall experience of Tea is Okay but I think the companion makes the experience FIVE STAR, not the food, not the setting, not the parking but the companion and the catching up making my day a good day. :P I need to make time to do it more often!
