Kawan Kopitiam — Restaurant in Lombok

In the end, I spent more than 250K and I regret not going to one of the local restaurants up the road that are way cheaper and have...

This was quite frustrating, and dissapointing, quite regretful of how much I’ve supported this business only to be let down so unnecessarily for such a simple request. If the owner is reading this, some of your staff is costing you sales simply because they can’t think for themselves. Worth noting. Anyone reading this, the food is good - you probably won’t encounter this problem I had. I just want the owner to know and hopefully something to do be...
