Nam Ping Cafe — Restaurant in Santo António

Avoid at all cost if you're a tourist. the owner will literally disrespect you (and loud about it) because you're not from around there and does not understand how 'things' work in their restaurant.

Story: We found a table and sat down and then called one of the lady over to order. she walked away middway without saying a word while taking our orders and proceed to start making one of the item (pineapple bun with butter, it was served COLD). I was CONFUSED. I know people here move fast and service is the least of their worry but this lady is on a whole different scale. My wife tried to grab some plates for the kids and a nice man next table said they charge for plates. What?? The lady saw and started making jokes about us not knowing how things work and we might 'mistake' them for being a shady store.

One employee spoke some English and she took our order, she was the only one who treated us normally. The staff made jokes about us behind our backs and made us feel very uncomfortable. We tried to eat as quickly as possible so we could just get out of there. They charged an extra 2 MOP for the card payment. I have never had such a bad customer service experience! Avoid this place if you...
