Day 2 - Sumptouri Teppanyaki

Ok as promised more food selection. Full disclosure, I have seen this style of cooking show several times. This time I was very disappointed. It was a poor experience all around.

The waiter did not speak much English. When asked to explain dishes he glazed over the menu and then wanted your choice??

There was no fancy cooking or fires shows like I've seen in other cooking shows. The cook made a heart of rice and tossed a few morsels at some loud patrons. More on that ..

No bar service for me or the other 9 guests. But the loud duo of men seemed to run through 6 tequila shots each brought by the bar waiter. Their friends from another grill room kept dropping in. I got up and left the group to get a glass of wine from the bar. Only after did the in-room waiter take drink orders.

He attempted to top up my glass with the wrong wine so I corrected his pour. He returned with the correct wine and wanted to just "add" it to the wrong wine he previously poured. Oh my, I corrected this pour and asked for new glass.

Then there was a family group who basically dictated how things were cooked. They couldn't have pork, the beef had to be medium rare, the water had to be sparkling and heaven forbid you added ice to the glass. I love it when other people choose for me. This is why I enjoy dining alone ❤️

It wasn't a good experience, for what amounts to stirfry. I did not put this restaurant on my repeat list. Here's hoping tomorrow's dining experience will be more on par for a 5 Star resort.Read more
