Disgusting Diners

Had dim sum with No.10 and his family at the Red (*) restaurant on Sunday. V crowded and the queue was like never ending. Lucky for us, we had seats once we reached. I was seated near the kitchen door, where these aunties will push trolleys of fresh-out-of-the-oven dim sum out and go section to section, asking you if you want siew mai, har gao, char siew bao, etc., depending of what they have - just like those restaurants in Hong Kong.

Alas, the concept is totally destroyed by the ugly and KS behaviour of the diners. I about to dig in when I noticed there seemed to be people crowding behind my back all the time, which shouldn't be the case as only the staff will walk to and fro the kitchen. Then i realised, all the diners have crowded around the area to wait for the food trolleys! Walau! The poor aunties cannot even push the trolleys out but stay put to serve. For those who successfully went further into the restaurant, they were also swarmed by other diners. I was so disgusted! Please lah, the aunties will do their rounds, and the frequency of the trolleys are quite fast, if this trolley is emptied, the next one will come soon! These trolleys are supposed to be MOBILE. If you people like to swarm about like that, then they might as well have STALLS instead, where the aunties just have to serve over the counter! Some go to the extent of opening up the 笼 to see for themselves what's inside. Shame on you!
