Get your fundamentals in place before you do advertising

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

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.

Malta’s strongest long island iced tea at Refreshment in Ballutta bay

Saturday, March 7th, 2009

Claimed to be Malta’s strongest long island iced tea and we couldn’t agree more. Maybe it has something to do with Mr. Borg and his successful wrestling career?

Papparazzi St. Julians Malta – Bigger desserts than you can handle

Saturday, March 7th, 2009

Getting a table in the sun, or a table at all, can be hard enough during weekends. However, if you’re lucky you won’t get disappointed choosing any of the delicious things from the desserts menu. How about an “Outrageous”?

Many of you are searching for ”Gochi Sushi Malta” on google. Assuming you’re looking for a phone number, menu or just a short review i’ve listed what I’ve found about Gochi Sushi here:

The Jazz bar in Malta – Smooth Jazz Inc.

Sunday, March 1st, 2009

“JAZZ IS BACK, THEY SAY. NOT SO LONG AGO, jazz musicians were rarely seen on television or in national magazines, jazz records were either small-label affairs or imports from Europe and Japan, jazz radio was something of a contradiction in terms.”

Peter and Shirley Thurston runs the popular Jazz bar down Church Street in Paceville. We asked if Peter could give us a short live performance from his CD available in the bar.

Thought I would never go to a McDonald’s again…

Saturday, February 21st, 2009

I was late, hungry and stressed. I had to sacrifice any pride towards not going to McDonald’s… ever. I did my well deserved 2 years on the kitchen floor back home in Sweden and promised myself never to eat or even visit the place again… I failed.

Anyway, I guess the Spinola branch has to be considered one of the better McDonald’s restaurants. Would like to try the café someday… I just have so much against McDonald’s. 
Guess what, I asked for “take out” as mentioned on the receipt. Of course I didn’t get it that way… 2 options… 50% risk to fail, tough life :)
