Went to celebrate the birthday of a friend at this place called Miss Clarity @ Purvis st yesterday. COuple of my friends saw a blog talking abt how good the food was etc and thus decided to go check it out.

Place was really a bit too noisy for my own good and i believe they are more like selling a lifestyle than food. Anyway we ordered and the food arrived. The service was kinda lacking. Busy waiters and waiteresses had nary a good smile on their face cos they seemed so stress. But thats ok i guess. Food wise though was a BIG BIG disappointment. Soup was weak (thin) , food was slightly over cooked and not exactly mouth-watering. A friend had an issue with her mashed potatoes. She commented to the waiters that the mashed potatoe had no real potatoe in it (powdered preparation). She wanted it changed or SOMETHING at least. Here's the kicker. The manager came back and commented
"Sorry Madam, I did not know you wanted REAL potatoe in your mashed potatoe"

then he mentioned that they cant replace it and asked my friend will that be fine.
My fren mentioned that does she have a choice? to which he replied
"No..."

to which my fren replied then you don't ask me a silly question can or not.

sigh... word of mouth is a very powerful tool.. for good or bad..... so in this case, good luck to owners of Miss Clarity cafe!
