About a week ago I received a promotion newsletter from TEMPAsian and the Palace Hotel, well unfortunately they insist on sending it as 2Mb jpg images so I couldn’t actually read it. However, I’m sure it was nothing in it for me but just another “hey, we got a special Sunday menu”.
Anyway, as the top floor restaurant have this amazing outdoor terrace with stunning views over the whole island I decided to take my girl out for a romantic dinner. Picker up the phone to make a booking: “…possible to get a table outside on the terrace?”
- Well, sir, the terrace area is not yet fully operational?
When we arrived we saw a couple sitting outside dining. It had to be a table outside or else we’ll go somewhere else. “Mela… earlier today it was windy… hence I told you it was not fully operational”
Windy? It has been 31 degrees and not even a candle would flicker on the heights of Melliha. Maybe, just a very wild guess, it is so that it’s just so much more convenient for the staff to serve patrons inside. Anyway, just a hot tip for your restaurant, you have Malta’s best ninth floor terrace… you should use it and it will have way better ROI than your 2Mb image newsletters.
