I’m going to talk about the survive we received in a restaurant where a friend of mine celebrated his birthday party last Saturday evening. My friend had decided to go to a table in a local Vietnamese restaurant for the party. It was more family run place when it made it feel all the more welcoming and inviting. The atmosphere was great and the survive was excellent. As I mentioned, I went to the restaurant because a friend had invited me to celebrate her birthday there. There were about 10 of them there. Mostly people I have known in university. It was really nice to chat with them and try out what we had been up to since we last got together. The survive was good because the restaurant staff and owners really make a feel at home. From the moment we walked in, the waiters were polite, approachable and attentive. Nothing would too much to ask. They brought out a cake with candles and sang happy birthday to my friend. We hadn’t asked them to do it. And the restaurant owners kept checking whether we were happy with everything. We were thoughtful of them and all in all, the delicious food, good company and friendly survive make it an unforgettable evening.
