BACI Trattoria & Bar — Restaurant in Hong Kong Island

The receptionist splashing water on you if you are not a guest tonight

I have come to BACI 4 times this year as a walk-in guest. Regretably, I don't think I would come to BACI again anymore.

For those who wants to visit BACI, I urge you to turn away from this Italian "Cha Chaan Teng". It was a real incident happened 3 days ago (last Sunday) at early night. My friend was waiting at California Tower for me and the rest of my family's members. We were a bit late and so my friend simply sat down on the leader pavement in the front of BACI for just a while. A few moment later, a middle-aged like lady, the guest receptionist of BACI, came over nearby with a glass of water, splashed the back of my friend. it seemed that she might want to evict my friend from sitting near BACI, so that she wanted to get the steps wet. Unfortunately, she was so hostile against my friend and deliberately get my friend and the steps wet at the same time.

Wow, how impolite and improper she was as a guest receptionist of the house, appalling. My friend was of course angry and outrageous. On what ground she believed that she has/had the right to splash water towards pedestrians nearby, or like, the first-time Hong Kong visiter like my dear friend? Who taught her to splash water towards outsiders as a deterrence to stop people from sitting there? The clothing was tained with unknown water, no matter the water had been consumed or not, laughable enough.

My friend asked her to apologize rightaway but she was so haughty, so arrogant to do so. It was out of the proportion to splash water when there were still someone sitting at there. How come she couldn't politely ask my friend to move a bit further from the front of the restaurant?

She is the guest receptionist. She should have behaved in a decent way. Her stance and her behaviors are absolutely barbaric, inappropriate and indecent. Why this pizza award-winning Trattoria hired such an arrogant, indecent and foul-language speaking person as a house receptionist? I strongly believe that there are other candidates whom are much polite and decent than her.

I did think about bringing that friend to BACI for pizza a few days later. However, I definitely will not. My friend is really frustrated and upset about being treated in that way. No one would want to be greeted with the same receptionist with hypocrisy whom had splashed water on your back before, a...

In particular, our server Manita consistently wore a warm smile on her face, creating a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Her attentive and thoughtful service added an extra layer of enjoyment to our meal.
