Goodwood Park's assorted snow skin mooncakes were out of stock before I went to do my hair. I was told that there would be stock coming in an hours' time. However they refused to let me pre-order and collect later despite me explaining to them that I had to go to the salon and therefore unable to stay around to wait. Hmph....so inflexible la...just because their business is brisk. Last year also like that....
As expected when I returned at 730pm, there was only 1 favour left. It's ok 东家不打, 打西家!No big deal.
In the end bought 2 boxes of assorted snow skins from Fairmont. More expensive than Goodwood, but Fairmont had fair shares of good reviews too. Unlike Goodwood, the staff there allowed reservations. They did not even require the customers to pay first lor! The staff told 1 customer: 'It's worse if you pay first, I would have to wait for you if you did not turn up at the appointed time. But if you had yet to pay, then I'll just take it that your reservation is cancelled and I would sell it to other customers when you did not come and collect it at your appointed time.'
Now this is flexibility......
