Ok, so I went to this new Japanese restaurant in Chinatown.
I noticed this restaurant a couple weeks ago but didn't have a chance to check it out.
And finally, last Sunday I went there to have lunch.
It was around 1PM. We went there from Whiterock Lake to take some pics for my photography class. I wasn't really going to go to Ajisen coz I need to make a detour (it's in the other side of the town - from that lake). But then, I thought, "Let's check it out, I've been meaning to check it out anyway. Why not now?!" Beuh, big MISTAKE!!!!!
And so, Priscil n I went there.
The place is actually quite nice. I like the decor.
There's a sushi bar and you can see the display kitchen where they cook the appetizer. It's covered by the glass tho', so you won't smell anything from that kitchen. but you can see everything.
They also have the back kitchen which we can't see.
The restaurant itself is not that big of a size.
So, we went in and were greeted by the confused hostess.
Why I said confused?? Well, coz she looked overwhelming n didn't really know where the sections were. Simply to put: she didn't know where to put us! ^.^!
What a newbie!!! *hahahahha... bragging a bit... since I used to be a GREAT hostess haha*
We were seated at the last table, near the kitchen. People were going back n forth behind my back. Ugh!
Anyway, since it was crowded, we didn't really have any choices.
We sat there waiting for the waiter/waitress to come.
And we wait....*still chatting happily and checking out the menu*
Still waiting.....*starting looking around*
Still waiting.....*starting to get pissed off... where the hell is the waitress?! It's been more than 5 minutes!!! No water, nobody asked us anything, NOTHING!!*
Finally, she came, looked at me and asked me what I would like to drink. Oh, no greetings btw.
I told her water. And guess what?!?
After she asked me that, she just went away without even LOOKING at Priscil who sat in front of me.
We were like, what the hell?! She didn't even look at you!! Wah deeppp *wah dalem maksudnya hahhaahaa*
The water came. Yes, she brought 2 glasses of water. But...... there is a but hehehe...
But, she brought 1 glass with lemon and the other 1 without. She also didn't ask for our orders.... ckckckkckc....
We waited again for her to come back and take our orders.
Again we waited....*I'm already a bit pissed off by this time.*
And waited......
Finally *warning, I'm gonna be using this word alot in this post ^^*, she came and took our orders.
I ordered katsu don and Priscil had the gyudon.
We also got miso soup n salad.
Again *warning, I'll be using this alot too hahaha*, we waited....
While we waited, there was a waitress came and asked if we had placed our orders. Then we continued waiting.
After like 5-10 minutes, somebody brought our soup n salad.
And again of course we waited oh-so-patiently for our foods to come.
And of course, they just had to had to take their time bringing out the foods.
I was already sooo damn pissed off!! In fact, I'm pissed off again rite now just remembering!
heuhuehuheuhe...
We waited for a good 15-20 minutes before our foods came.
The weirdest thing was, nobody ever came by to take our soup's bowls and salad's plates the whole time we were waiting.
Then, the busgirl came and clean ALL the bowls, plates, chopsticks, forks, spoons, and clean the table.
She even said thank you! We were like, what in the world just happened there?! @____@!
Did she try to kick us out? haha...
After that the food came. Luckily, they came with spoons.
And of course, as you all can guess by now, the foods suck!!!!! Damn it!
I've wasted my precious time and waited for that kind of food?! And it wasn't that cheap either!
We ate for about 10-15 minutes... HUH! We ate faster that they cooked.
The whole time, and I mean the WHOLE TIME we were there, nobody, NOBODY, asked us if everything was ok or do you need anything or you know... all those kind of bullshits that we do to get good tips.... ^^
The only person came that often to our table was the busgirl to refill our water. OH, don't get me wrong... all waitresses were going back n forth alot but they just didn't stop at our table.
I will never ever go back there again.... I'm so pissed off I could hit somebody.
That was the longest time I ever spent (2 hours) in a restaurant..... waiting.....
FYI: Ajisen is located at Chinatown by Arapaho n Greenville.
Next to Canton restaurant across from Caravelle restaurant. You can easily see it from the street (Greenville).
