Earth Hour at Cafe TATU, STAR

On 26 March 2009, I received a sms from Standard Chartered Bank. The sms read as follows.

StanChart: Enjoy 50% off ala carte dinner @ Shang Palace, Shangri-La Tg Aru with your StanChart Credit Card. Valid 28-Mar fm 7pm. Call 088-327941 to book. T&C apply

I was not interested to dine at Shang Palace since mum is away and i think it would be more fun to eat at such place when they are more people.

Then last night I received a sms from my church member Elizabeth Chung. The sms read as follows.

StanChart: Enjoy 50% off ala carte dinner @ Shang Palace, or Café TATU, Shangri-La Tg Aru with your StanChart Credit Card. Valid 28-Mar fm 7pm. Call 088-327941 to book. T&C apply

When I saw the word Café TATU, the sms looked more interesting. Sophia Tsen and I had dined there on 15 December 2005, the time when the restaurant had only opened for a short while.

This morning I called the restaurant and enquired whether the offer applies on the following.

1. Any particular or certain Standard Chartered Credit Card.

2. Only for ala carte dining

The waitress told me it applies to any SCB Credit Card and can be used for the buffet. Without asking Sophia first, I booked a table for two at 7.30p.m. I was so happy when Sophia replied my sms in the affirmative.

The restaurant observed Earth Hour at 8.30p.m. At some moments, we were actually eating in the dark with only the mini candles lit placed on the table.

The food was not that great but we were still full and since we were paying half price to dine there, we cannot complain much. I certainly would not pay full price to eat there.
