Mandarin Wok Cafe

It's been a year since I was last at the Mall of Asia. This year's different because although once again I scanned the restaurants in the area, I let my good judgment rule this time.After what seemed like an hour going around the mall looking for a restaurant that served just the right amount of food and not supersize, I settled for Mandarin Wok Cafe because the person outside was friendly without being too close and was not at all irritated when I just looked on my first round. Plus, they had gourmet plates which had a little of rice, meat and vegetables which sounded balanced.I ordered the Fried Chicken Fillet Gourmet Plate (PHP) which came with 2 servings of fried chicken fillet, a cup of rice, a very small serving of steamed vegetables and fragrant spring onion. It was served hot, freshly cooked but was nothing special although the fragrant spring onion did bolden the taste a lot. To fulfill the fruit requirement, I had the Almond Jelly with Mixed Fruits (PHP 45). It was good and chilled quite well.What I found special was the customer service. They were quite attentive, served me water without my asking for it and gave me magazines to pass the time.As for the amount of food, it was okay based on restaurant standards but not proportioned as a dietitian would wish. But I don't think any restaurant can actually get a dietitian's advice right or dare to. Or if most customers would even want that.
