Asoka
Worst Manager I've ever encountered

Last night at Asoka I had literally one of the worst restaurant/bar/lounge experiences of my life. I went to catch up with a friend and have a few drinks after dinner. Being quite a small place it wasn't long after I arrived that I found where my friend and his girlfriend were sitting. I pulled up a stool and sat down next to them; within 45 seconds of doing so a waiter carrying a hot burning wax candle bumped into me, knocking the candle over in the process - causing the hot liquid wax to jet stream all over my face, arms and clothes. I have been a waiter for five years of my life and am all too familiar with accidents - they happen, it's life. However, during this incident (one I deem to be rather serious in nature), before I could even get off a word from my wax covered mouth, the waiter said "It was your fault! "

The manager (who is a young guy in his twenties) literally echoed the words of the waiter, "it was your fault, you bumped into him" (Which is false!). Asoka's manager (night of the 20th of April 2013) is rude and obnoxious to say the least, not to mention utterly incompetent at his job. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy (unless I wanted him burned).
