Review: RC Pearl Castle

So a new pearl castle opened at richmond centre (across from McDonald)
and i was wondering if anyone else tried it! i thought the drinks weren't as good (we ordered a taro milk tea and bubble milk tea). And the service was OKAY. The lady sitting across from me was trying to get the bill for 20 minutes, but no one would help her.
To me, this place was a 6/10.
what do u think?
Original Pearl Castle isn't even good, what makes you think a second one will be better?

We tried to go there Friday night, they close at 11, so when we got here at 10:30, they said the kitchen was closed, drinks only.

Well it's convenient since parking lot has tons of parking at night and it's about time RC got a bbt place

I'm not sure why people expect "service" from these twanger joints. They're notorious for not giving a fuck.

he knows it all..
Haha, are the prices the same?

PC @ RC is a franchise, not a corporate store, so it's more possible that they would differ more in terms of food and drinks.
I went there yesterday and it seemed to be a fairly faithful replication of the other Richmond one..
Did PC in poco really close down? I thought it was reno

^ "closed for renovation" translates into Chinese for "NO BUSINESS GOOD BYE, RENOVATION FOR NEXT TENANT"
unless, it specifies a date when they are expected to re-open
^LoL, so whos the next tenant?

I think its more likely "closed for kitchen clean up" from health department.

I wouldn't go back there ever again. It took me 10 minutes before someone came to help to order some drinks for take-out, and turned out they ran out of pearls. Not the brightest bunch of people working there.

My friend went there last night at 11pm only to have the waitress tell her "Good morning!" :lol

i don't really care what they drive or what their personal life is..
work is work. When i walk in, i'm the customer and they are serving me.
Customer service shouldn't be ignored no matter what the situation is.
At then end, if you don't give me good service, i don't
give u good tips :)

That's the thing, like they care if u give them tips or not. Wow, extra TWO DOLLARS, big deal.
Not trying to justify it, but that's my impression so far @ these twanger joints.
