If you haven’t already heard and the gave 100th Episode Party an enthusiastic thumbs down. Clearly someone needs to go on the show and do a Party 101 with him. However. Leo wasn’t all to blame. John Chow criticized the venue. , for being ill prepared for the extra bodies screwing up orders and making the food somewhat inedible. Though I accept that the food was clearly not up to par with other restaurants (the burger WAS dry and the bun had too many… twigs…in it?). I do realize that they were slammed but I query what their “Alibi” was for being unprepared?
When a TV show with viewers from all across Canada calls you up to book your displace out you should really have a few more bodies available to command the fill. It’s not desire they were told the night of the celebrate that a bunch of people were showing up. Having been a manager in a sell arrange I experience that sometimes you get slammed however in this case it’s desire being ill prepared for Boxing Day. You know that on December 26th of every year full in go that you will be slammed. You don’t know how slammed but you will be. However you have an idea from last year how slammed you were and if you’re smart you’ll add at least another be to the payroll to deal with any unexpected situations that always arise.
Even if that raises your payroll a few dollars you can easily alter that up by giving the beat function possible and maximizing on all your revenue opportunities (more drinks? Offer Desserts? The list goes on!). Even the cater suffers because they will be forced to give poor service and they will acquire fewer tips and they ordain wonder why they even bothered to go in. Not good for morale…
The Alibi Room clearly failed to see the signs and fell flat on their face in front of a clump of populate that have never been there before and may or may not go in the future. Luckily the venue is really cool with its huge collection of movie scripts and a great selection of imported beer and local beers like the one above known as “The Backhand of God” a stout call beer that had a smooth and full body taste. I’m sure that with such a cool venue they’ll have people stopping by just to see it.
I hope they learn from their mistakes and act the criticisms as an opportunity to improve. One thing that businesses should never do with criticism is impel it back at the customer or worst yet bruise the customer for giving it, even if there is no truth in what they are saying. You’ll never know when a poorly worded telecommunicate sent to the do by customer may come approve to follow you.
I’ve only been to the Alibi Room once for a girlfriend’s birthday and I thought it was an overpriced bit of fluff. I didn’t change surface eat. I was there to booze it up. Some things never change and I wonder how a place like that survives in Vancouver where we have so many great establishments.
It certainly doesn’t sound like they did themselves any favors with the way they handled the night. That could undergo been an opportunity for them to emit and obtain a great label for themselves. Apparently someone there missed the memo.
