Catia Freitas: Familiar, boa comida simpatia e serviço.

Sophie Woods: My partner and I ate at Soho Coffee in the departure lounge for breakfast ahead of our return flight to the UK. As there were only a handful of flights departing that day the lounge was virtually empty, and we were served quite quickly. I ordered an Americano with my avocado, and my partner a Coke Zero and some pancakes. But what made this experience so great was not what we ordered, but what some other customers ordered after us. It was an American group, who were all over the place when ordering. They were over-pronouncing words to the staff as if they were deaf when in actual fact quite a few of them had relatively good English. One woman said she wanted an Americano coffee, asking “do you know what that is?” to a man stood below a menu that included such beverage. “Yes, I do. Would you like one?” he said. “Two” she said, holding up two fingers and mouthing it in such a way that was blatantly rude. “Sure thing,” he said. She returned to the table, only after picking up a couple of bottles of ketchup. And a short time later, their ‘Americano’s’ were ready to pickup. Instead of being served in the usual way, as mine was, the man making the drinks (not the same man who took the order, a different one), went overboard with whipped cream and sugar on top. I didn’t notice this at first, but my partner did and said the staff were messing with them. They hadn’t asked for their drink to be topped off like this, but I didn’t think they would do this. But then another person ordered an Americano, they weren’t American, and it was served in the usual way, ie a cup with no whipped cream and sugar sprinkled all over it. It was hilarious. Anyway, our food was great. Our drinks were good. The service we received was excellent. And the entertainment was priceless.

O Bob Best foi fantástico! Bob nos ajudou a comprar uma TV e uma barra de som, como eu expliquei, tenho problemas de audição. O Bob levou o seu tempo connosco para explicar quais seriam as melhores opções. O Esquadrão Geek pegou na nossa antiga TV de projecção e montou a nova TV com todos os acessórios. A Geek Squad foi fantástica! Muito profissional do início ao fim! Óptima experiência! TV, a barra de som é um grande passo em frente em relação ao que nós tínhamos!

Visito frequentemente Bed Bath and Beyond durante todo o ano, mas estou lá com mais frequência quando mando um miúdo para a faculdade. É uma ótima experiência de compra em uma única parada ao montar um dormitório com produtos de organização, toalhas, roupa de cama e uma cafeteira Keurig. Comprei cortinas, candeeiros, toalhas de cabelo, cortinas de duche, organizadores de jóias, porta sapatos, almofadas decorativas, recargas difusoras, tigelas de aço inoxidável para animais domésticos, fotografias, uma infinidade de aparelhos de cozinha, e muito mais ao longo dos anos. Vinte por cento de cupons abundam em correio de caracol, revistas, via texto e até e-mail, tornando quase impossível chegar à loja sem receber um desconto em pelo menos um item.
