Great Spice Papamoa
Last night decided to get some curry for dinner, went to our local and called ahead of time to place our orders at 7pm, we were told that it would be 40 minutes delay. Went up to Foursquare to get some other items and proceeded to Great Spice to collect our order at 7.45pm, mentioned to the lady our name and awaited our order. ONLY to wait another hour before our meal was passed over to us.
I am glad that this restaurant is busy, would have been good if the lady who took our order told us before hand that they were extremely busy and would be 1.5hrs delay in orders, and we could have made up our mind to go ahead with the order or just go up later!!!!
There was another lady there to collect her order who had been told they were just waiting for a driver to deliver their order and she found out that they were only just starting to prepare the order.
Suggestion!!! be honest on delivery times as I am sure the locals understand that its holiday season and can make the decision to either proceed or make another plan.
The curry as always good here but the service was al little (actually big) disappointing.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
