The great service I get at bars and restaurants in the US is such a stark contrast to what I get over here! I've always been a firm believer that the only effective way we can drive up service standards in Singapore is if we abolished the mandatory service charge system and introduce tipping instead. <strong>pkchukiss</strong>: Haha your cute comment brightened my day, if a little corny :) <strong>michelle</strong>: Looks like poor service is a common complaint amongst Muthu's customers. I may not have been on the receiving end of the bad attitude like you were, but I can imagine. Poor attitude or knowledge displayed by the waitstaff can really spoil the dining experience, no matter how good the food may be. Shame, shame! But hey, at least the masala chicken was good! offpoint: You have a point about the correlation between good service and tipping.

I found the service rather poor, as the waiter looked and sounded entirely irritated when we asked him about the various dishes they have, and when we ordered 4 dishes to share for the 6 of us, he gave an incredulous ' that's all?' remark, which was definitely unnecessary. The food overall was average. We tried some mushroom and it was quite bad, the only thing edible was the masala chicken and the squid in curry. Towards the end, when we have finished the dishes, we started to chit chat, and after like 30minutes, a waiter came over and propped the bill onto our table, which was like an indirect invitation to leave. And the whole restaurant wasnt even 1/5 full. I doubt i'll be going back there. i went to muthu’s curry around jan this year for a friend’s birthday, as we wanted to have something different for a change.

The kind of stuff employees flavour their bosses with! :) It looks so thick-ish that you can spread it over the rice or your superior. Curry!
