Forums > Food & Drink > Business Behaviour in KMG A word of advice for Francesca's BOX

Fair enough.....looks like we got some free meals coming our way there Andre. Fancy a double date?
Seriously, this is piss poor behaviour. The owner/ manager is obliged to sort this kind of thing out as part of running a business. If you can't do it, then maybe get into teaching or something...

Damn straight it is!
It was the way she just looked at me, like it was all my fault that their company is unwilling to comply with the law.

Really sticks in my craw it does!

1) It is your legal requirement to provide tax receipts.
2) Failure to provide tax receipts when asked is an offence, with can result in a fine of up to 10k rmb
3) When a customer asks for a tax receipt, it might be better to say "sorry, we don't have any right now, would it be possible to come back tomorrow?", rather than "you should have told me you wanted one earlier, now it's too late"
4) Next time, in the unlikely even I go back, I will first consume all my food, then ask for a fa piao. If you don't provide one, then I will not pay for whatever I have eaten. This is my legal right, according to my friend at the wuhau qu local tax bureau

Thanks for the advice yuantongsi. Sadly I still am unable to get online, except by using wifi. I am on China mobile, though I was on unicom before and had the same problem. If you ever venture to the wenlin jie area I would actually really appreciate meeting up with you so I can compare phone setting, as dumb as that may sound.

My email address is jonathan@justbeer.cn

cheers

Try witopia. USD$60 a year, setup is easy, and generally works smoothly, well, up until the other week. But the support was good, and they did fix the problems promptly

True story- I ran into blobbles in the wilds of the Tian Shan last year. We spent a few days in the mountains together, and at that time he often pondered aloud how much he wanted to cook up some marmot soup, an animal which is also known to have a high incidence of rabies. He eventually left the hills unsated.

It makes me wonder what really did happen to those that raccoon...

And for an "Adam Ryan" your......Engrish sux dude!

Babs' pizza is not bad at all, and Im not exactly sure how it could be swimming in oil even if it tried.

"In January 2012 we ended up with a lazy cook that produced very inconsistent dish quality, one day good, the next terrible, especially obvious on Pizza. Because it was just before Chinese New Year we could not fire him without problem staffing the kitchen."

Interesting that you made the decision to serve often "terrible" food, which people had to pay for presumably, rather than just close the kitchen until you could find a cook that didnt serve terrible fare. If I were you, and having been to your establishment once I speak with limited experience, I'd be extremely grateful with the 4 stars you already have

Is this place new, has it just changed to a fantastic new menu, or are there other forces at play here?

Any old timers or Michelin- rated French chefs who have recently moved to KM been here?

"chongzijia" would it be wrong of me to assume you had a relationship with this guesthouse? If so don't you think you should state this up front, and possibly abstain from giving a star rating?
Actually I think if you pay for an ad you are able to write an intro for your business...

Otherwise your review may appear to be slightly disingenuous? These reviews have low enough credibility as it is. Just a thought.

I went there over the winter. Beer was nice and cold but the bar appeared to have no roof. Perhaps it has one now...
