Day 2 - Ding Tai Fung

Up next for the day was our dinner at Ding Tai Fung and we were the mystery shoppers for the branch that we visited.

The queue outside Ding Tai Fung in Taiwan is as long as that of Singapore. This shows that the global branding strategies of the Company are successful no matter which Ding Tai Fung outlets we go worldwide.

We were directed to a private room whereby there were sockets for the customers to charge their phones. However, there was no carrier for us to place our bags unlike in Singapore, maybe because the room was quite small. 

The servers serving our tables were very passionate in their service and they served us in wide smiles. They would take note of our tea and helped us to refill every now and then. The dishes were also served consistently to ensure that we did not had the food cold if they were to be served fast.  

Dinner started serving

Xiao Cai Oriental Salad in Special Vinegar Dressing

I feel that I prefer the taste of Xiao Cai back in Singapore as it caters more to me. But still, Taiwan's version tasted good too!

When I went to the restroom, the cleaner auntie told me to be careful of my steps as she was afraid of me slipping due to her cleaning of the floor. I was so touched by her gesture that I commended her and she thanked me back.

For the past 2 days in Taiwan, I truly appreciated how friendly and passionate the Taiwanese are in terms of their service no matter which industry they are working in. This is something that the service staff in my Company can work towards to.
